The Peruvian government declares the creation of a spaceport to be of national interest and public necessity.

On october 1, 2025, the government of President Dina Boluarte presented Bill No. 12623/2025-PE to the Congress of the Republic.

This bill seeks to declare the creation of a spaceport in Peruvian territory to be of national interest and public necessity.

The explicit objective of the document is to "position Peru as a regional leader in the space sector" allowing for scientific, commercial, military, and exploration operations and reducing dependence on foreign suppliers for satellite launches.

This initiative builds on previous efforts, such as a memorandum of understanding with NASA in November 2024 to boost the Peruvian space race and the plans announced by the Ministry of Defense in 2023 to locate the port in Talara (Piura) given its proximity to the equator, which facilitates orbital launches.

Peru is on its way to leading the space race in South America and throughout Ibero-America
