Please be aware: certain cultural goods belonging to the cultural heritage of this state are included in object categories of the so called Red Lists of the particularly endangered cultural heritage by the International Council of Museums ICOM.

National legal bases

Constitutión politica del Perú 1993

Ley N°28296, Ley General del Patrimonio Cultural del la Nación 2004

Decreto Supremo N° 001-2016-MC.

The multilingual UNESCO Database of National Cultural Heritage Laws provides access to the relevant national legal bases. Another source of information on national cultural asset protection laws is the Sharing Electronic Resources and Laws On Crime (SHERLOC) of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC).

This State Party to the UNESCO Convention of 14 November 1970 is also a State Party to the 1995 UNIDROIT Convention on Stolen or Illegaly Exported Cultural Objects, which entered into force on 1 July 1998. The national legal bases are therefore also partially provided by the WIPO database.
