You may be able to leave without a passport, but you may not be able to enter another country without one.

Since Zimmerman was born an American, there’s no guarantee that he could stay in Peru. I don’t know the laws, but Peru is Peru and not America.

From Wikipedia:

Those children born overseas to Peruvian mothers or fathers who were not registered before reaching 18 years of age can acquire Peruvian nationality by choice if:

• A petition is made to the Directorate of Naturalizations and Immigration (DIGEMIN). For this the petitioner must be resident in the Republic of Peru.

Foreigners can also acquire Peruvian nationality, including:

• Minor children born overseas to foreign parents who, having lived in the territory of the republic since five years of age, can elect to acquire Peruvian nationality at 18 years of age.
• Foreigners married to Peruvian spouses may acquire Peruvian nationality after two years of marriage and domicile in Peru.
