Overview
- Peru’s Reniec activated a web-based process to duplicate a blue DNI and migrate to the chip‑enabled DNIe without visiting an office, using facial biometrics via the DNI BioFacial app.
- The Peruvian procedure follows four steps—fee payment, biometric validation, online registration, and pickup selection—with a promotional S/30 charge available through April 12, 2026.
- Eligibility in Peru focuses on adults with a current blue DNI and no recent data changes requiring in‑person validation, and applicants must meet strict photo rules or repeat the capture.
- Argentina’s Renaper approved a new DNIe format to bolster security with no immediate mandatory replacement, while 2026 renewals apply to documents issued in 2011 and to minors at ages 5–8 and 14.
- Argentine renewals require an appointment through the Mi Argentina app, presentation of the prior DNI and a guardian for minors, and payment of published 2026 fees such as $7,500 standard, $18,500 express, $29,500 24‑hour and $40,500 instant service.
