Answer

'Perhaps' is used when we are talking about an action that might happen in the future. Maybe is used when we talk about an action that has a chance of happening in the future. 'Perhaps, we will meet again' = 'We might meet again'. 'Maybe, we will meet again.' = 'There is a chance that we will meet again.  The difference in meaning is very slight and most people use 'perhaps' and 'maybe' interchangeably. 'Perhaps' is just a little more formal than 'Maybe' and therefore more common in formal contexts such as written business communication.

Answer

I would use Perhaps when making a suggestion or looking at a possibility.  and maybe when you're not sure of a fact, when the answer cannot be Yes or No, its Maybe. But basically the meaning is the same, with perhaps being a little more formal.

Answer

Perhaps is a little more formal. Otherwise, there is really no difference.
