No. Peru’s Reglamento Nacional de Vehículos (DS 058-2003-MTC) prohibits window tints below 70% light transmittance for front side windows and windshields, making 50% tint illegal. The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) enforces this via Decreto Supremo 016-2023-MTC, effective 2024, with stricter penalties for non-compliance.
Key Regulations for 50% Window Tint in Peru
- Front Side Windows & Windshield: Must allow ≥70% light transmittance (VLT). 50% tint violates this, risking fines up to 5% of the minimum living wage (S/ 260 in 2024).
- Rear Side & Back Windows: Permitted tints vary by vehicle type but typically require ≥30% VLT. 50% may be tolerated if not obstructing visibility.
- Enforcement & Certification: Police and SUNARP inspect tints during vehicle registration. Certified sticker labels (issued by MTC-approved labs) are mandatory post-2026 compliance deadline.
