Obtaining a Specific Purpose Visa outside my home country

Hi, I am an Australian and also have British nationality. I would like to apply for a Specific Purpose Visa (visa de objeto determinado) in order to apply for Temporary Residency in Bolivia. I am currently in South America which would make it too expensive to return to my home country to apply for this visa. Does anyone know if it is possible to obtain this visa from outside my home country? (ie, the Bolivian Consulate in Peru)...

Also, would there be any problem if I entered first on a 3 month tourist visa, then after the 90 days left the country to apply for a visa de objeto determinado?

Many thanks,

 Should be possible

Hello! I am American and I recently got a specific-purpose visa at the Bolivian consulate in Lima. It wasn't the simplest process -- I had to go to the consulate five times over four days -- but it worked. I don't know what the requirements are for UK/AUS nationals, but you can call the consulate at +51 1-4228231 to find out. Their hours are 9am-1pm. Good luck!
