Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Paraguay temporary and permanent residency?
Paraguay temporary residency lasts up to 2 years, can be extended for the same period, and is the step before permanent residency.

Investors can go straight to permanent residency with the Investor Pass. Read the full answer →
Can you keep Paraguay residency without living in Paraguay?
Paraguay residency does not require you to be in the country all year, but long absences can cause it to lapse, and the limits depend on the type of residency. Also, immigration residency is not the same as tax residency, which is proven with your official record of entries into and exits from Paraguay. Read the full answer →
Does Paraguay residency give you citizenship?
No. Paraguay residency, whether temporary or permanent, gives you the cédula (Paraguayan ID card) but not citizenship or a passport. Citizenship by naturalization is a separate process: among other requirements, the Constitution calls for at least three years of residence in the country. Read the full answer →

The Paraguay Investor Pass is a residency-by-investment program launched in 2026 by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce (MIC) and Migraciones (National Migration Office), so that foreigners who invest in the country can obtain Paraguay permanent residency directly, without first holding temporary residency. It is governed by MIC Resolution 283/2026. Read the full answer →
