Question

Answer 1

A resident of the US does not need a visa to enter Mexico if only for a few days.

Answer 2

Can't really say if Mexico usually requires visas from Peruvians, but you can contact the embassy or the nearest consulate to ask. The following information comes from the Consular Information Sheet at travel.state.gov:

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS: For the latest entry requirements, contact the Embassy of Mexico web site at http://portal.sre.gob.mx/usa/ or contact the Embassy of Mexico at 1911 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC  20006, telephone [phone] or any Mexican consulate in the United States for the most current information.

U.S. legal permanent residents in possession of their I-551 Permanent Resident card may board flights to the U.S. from Mexico.

Answer 3

If you're flying or taking a cruise, the carrier can tell you the latest requirements. It's in their interest for passengers to have proper papers; otherwise they have to try to solve the problem!

Answer 4

Just a passport.

Answer 5

If he wants to come back to America he better get one.

Answer 6

Yes, he needs a visa.  While the Mexican government is more  than happy to help its people violate another country's immigration laws, they are VERY strict when it comes time to controlling their own.  See below for entry requirements for nationals of Peru:

Visa and Tourist Card/FMT form with consular stamp required.

Visa is valid for up to 90 days after date of issue and good

for 1 entry only.

Visa in expired passport is valid as long as the passenger

also carries a valid passport.

However, Tourist Card/FMT with consular stamp not required if

holding:

- multiple entry 5 year tourist visa; or

- multiple entry 3 year business visa.

Minors under 14 years of age, traveling alone, should be met

by an adult.

Visitor must hold:

- ticket and documents required for onward/return journey and

- sufficient funds.

Non-compliance with entry regulations will result in fines for

carrier varying from USD 850.- to a maximum of USD 1800.-, and

deportation of passenger to country of origin at carrier's

expense.
