On October 8, 2024, the National Institute of Quality of Peru (INACAL), together with the Ministry of Housing and Construction of Peru, officially issued the Mandatory Specification for Safety Management of Elevators and Escalators, which comprehensively upgraded the product certification, safety control and maintenance management of elevators in the Peruvian market. The core contents include: First, it is clarified that all complete elevator machines and core safety components entering the Peruvian market must obtain mandatory INACAL certification from Peru, and uncertified products are prohibited from being imported, sold and used. Second, tighten the inspection at import ports. The customs must conduct 100% verification of the INACAL certificate, certificate of origin and type test report of imported elevators, and products with inconsistent certificates will be directly returned. Third, strengthen the annual inspection requirements for in-use elevators. All in-use elevators must carry out a Peruvian standard compliance inspection once a year, and elevators that fail to meet the standards must be shut down for rectification immediately. Fourth, it is clarified that elevator maintenance units must obtain the official qualification license of Peru, passenger elevators carry out routine maintenance once every 14 days, and maintenance personnel must pass the official assessment of Peru and work with certificates. Fifth, upgrade the emergency rescue requirements, clarifying that the elevator entrapment rescue must be handled on site within 30 minutes, and the maintenance unit must establish a 24-hour emergency rescue duty system. Sixth, standardize the management of elevator safety files. All elevator design, manufacture, installation, maintenance and inspection records must be completely archived, with a retention period of no less than 10 years. The new regulation has a 6-month transition period and was officially implemented on April 8, 2025.
