Peru last played at a World Cup in 1982, with their best result a quarter-final defeat in 1970
Fifa is monitoring whether Peru should lose its place at next year's World Cup over a proposed new law in the South American country.
Peru, who last played at the World Cup in 1982, became the final side to seal their spot when they beat New Zealand 2-0 over a two-legged play-off.
Peruvian congresswoman Paloma Noceda denied the new law would see government take over Peru's football association.
Such a move would go against Fifa rules, and the body is investigating.
A Fifa spokesperson told BBC Sport: "Fifa sent a letter to the Peruvian FA on 23 November 2017, informing them that the current draft of the Peruvian Sports Law, which was presented to the respective committee of the Peruvian congress on 2 October 2017, includes certain items that, if implemented, would contravene the Fifa Statutes.
"Fifa will continue to monitor the situation."

Noceda, in an interview with Peruvian radio station Exitosa on Wednesday, said "in no way at all" was the government proposing to take control of the Peruvian FA.
She added: "I don't know how any part of the proposal could have been interpreted in this way.
"Maybe these worries about potential state interference could come from the FPF (the Peruvian FA) or from Fifa, who could see it this way, but we in the commission, and I believe everybody in congress, want the best for sport in this country."
She also posted a tweet that read: "Peru has qualified for the World Cup and will go to the World Cup - there is no proposed law that would prevent it!"
