How identity verification works in Peru.
- Fraud landscape
- Three pressures shape Peruvian identity fraud: deepfake and synthetic-DNI attacks on the wave of digital wallets (Yape, Plin, Tunki, Ligo) and the SBS-licensed E-money Issuer regime, DNI document forgery across the legacy and chip formats, and iGaming pressure as MINCETUR (Ministerio de Comercio Exterior y Turismo) licenses online sports-betting and casino operators under Ley 31.557. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session — face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
- Compliance frameworks
- Ley 27.693 (PLA/FT)
- Resolución SBS 369-2018 (CDD)
- Ley 29.733 (Datos Personales)
- Ley 31.557 (online gambling)
- Ley 31.572 EMI
- FATF 40 recommendations
