Results
Liguilla de Promoción a Segunda División
Deportivo Vigil, as champions of the 1962 Liga Provincial del Callao, and Atlético Lusitania, as champions of the 1962 Liga Provincial de Lima, were supposed to play a final to determine promotion to the 1963 Segunda División.
Defensor Espinar, as the champion of the 1962 Liga de los Balnearios del Sur, did not participate because the FPF annulled the tournament due to the clubs’ defiance in refusing to comply with the decision of the FPF’s Disciplinary Committee to play the suspended match between Víctor Bielich and Ciclista Alianza Miraflores.
| Team 1 | Score | Team 2 |
