On four occasions since 2016, the National Registry of Identification and Civil Status (RENIEC) was ordered through judicial means to recognize and register same-sex marriages celebrated abroad, however, the RENIEC appealed all the rulings.

In 2020, the Constitutional Court declared inadmissible the appeal for constitutional grievance filed by Óscar Ugarteche, so that the RENIEC would comply with registering his marriage certificate with his same-sex partner, which was celebrated in Mexico.

In 2022, the Constitutional Court declared the constitutional grievance inadmissible on the grounds that the registration of same-sex marriages “collides with the notion of marriage contained not only in the Civil Code, but also in the Political Constitution of Peru.” Susel Paredes and Gracia Aljovín filed the lawsuit.

In July 2023, the Fourth Constitutional Court of the Superior Court of Justice of Lima ordered RENIEC to register the marriage of a same-sex couple celebrated in Argentina. The Court decided not to apply Article 23
