ParaguayA future with room to grow.

Benefits

A residence card valid for up to two years, renewable under the rules, and access to the corresponding local identity procedure.

Eligibility

An applicant with lawful entry and the personal, criminal-record and declared occupation or activity evidence required by the Migration Directorate.

Requirements

Passport or accepted identity document, entry and visa evidence where needed, authenticated civil and criminal certificates, local declarations and the category’s supporting documents.

Benefits

Permanent residence, with the residence card renewed every ten years and a separate local identity-document process.

Eligibility

An eligible temporary resident who has completed the required temporary period and intends to settle permanently.

Requirements

Temporary residence card, current identity and local criminal certificates, civil updates and evidence of the declared activity or financial support.

These investment options lead to an immigration residence application, not an immediate passport. A purchase without the required accreditation does not automatically qualify.

Benefits

An eligible approved investor can obtain permanent residence without first completing temporary residence.

Eligibility

Applicants whose investment qualifies for the official investor certificate and who satisfy the immigration and personal-document requirements.

Requirements

The 2026 Investor Pass announcement includes USD 150,000 in qualifying tourism projects or USD 200,000 in the Paraguayan securities or real-estate sectors. Obtain the official investor certificate and document lawful funds and the specific approved investment.

Benefits

A two-year temporary residence period under the agreement, with a separate permanent-stage application where eligible.

Eligibility

A nationality covered by Paraguay’s applicable MERCOSUR residence agreement and compliance with its identity and character rules.

Requirements

Accepted identity and nationality documents, authenticated criminal certificates and civil records, plus the required declarations and documents for any children included.

Three years is an eligibility threshold, not a guaranteed passport delivery date. Holding an unused residence card or making an investment alone does not satisfy all nationality requirements.

Benefits

Nationality if the judicial naturalisation application succeeds, followed by the applicable passport procedure.

Eligibility

An adult with at least three years of permanent residence counted from the permanent-admission decision, a lawful profession, trade or activity and good conduct.

Requirements

Permanent-admission resolution and residence evidence, identity and civil records, criminal checks and proof of lawful occupation or business. Supply the court’s required references and other supporting evidence.
