How do you get a Paraguay tax residency certificate?

The Paraguay tax residency certificate is issued by the DNIT (tax authority). You apply with your cédula (Paraguayan ID card): if you are registered for a RUC (taxpayer number), you must also be up to date with your tax obligations; if not, you submit your official record of entries and exits for the period. It is issued in 10 business days and is valid for one year.
