Tarjeta de Entrada de Peru ( Entry Receipt )
I have lost my entry receipt, & was hoping that someone could inform me what to do.
I went to Ecuador last November so I could re-enter Peru with a new 90 day entry receipt ( so I have over-stayed by approx. 60 days ) but as I say,I have lost it, & was hoping to go to Ecuador on holiday again soon, then re-enter Peru with another fresh 90 day receipt.
So, what is the best thing to do about this? or what are my options, if any? Is it a big hassle to get a new one? Can I just go ahead & book my airfare & sort this out at immigration at the airport when I leave? Or do I maybe have to go to see the folk at the immigration office here in Lima? HELP !!!
Thanks!

The TAM card? I think you can just go to the airport and buy a new one. I would call the airport and ask them.

Entry receipt, hahaha!
During my one year in Peru, I became convinced that the only purpose of that thing is to charge tourists who've lost it on their way out of the country. I think it was like $10 USD, not little but not much.
Nothing to get worried about, the most drama I had from losing that thing was in bribing an immigration official during a run from Tacna to Arica.

I always left the country before my 90 days, but I heard that they charge $1 / day you overstayed. I also heard they dumped that system for some lump sum.
Regardless, having overstayed as long as you did, it's probably in your financial best interest to lose that paper.
