Due diligence, residency and corporate structuring for those moving capital, operations and family to Paraguay. A single counterpart for the entire file.
01
Due diligence, immigration and corporate structure under one responsible party. No hand-offs between firms, no repeating your information three times.
First we understand the operation and the asset objective. Only then do we define the right immigration and corporate structure.
Personal and financial information handled under a confidentiality protocol. It is the basis of the work, not an add-on.
02
01
Know who you are doing business with.
02
Orderly relocation, under the appropriate category.
There is no single residency route. There are several, and each one demands different documents, timelines and evidence. Choosing wrong means rebuilding the file.
03
From incorporation to actual operation.
03
Residency, national ID, and lastly the tax number. No stage can be brought forward: each document unlocks the next. Most rejected files do not fail for missing documents, but for the order in which they were obtained.

What reading cannot settle
04
The answers most people find out too late. What does not fit here is which of these situations is yours — that is settled by looking at your case.
Three. The Mercosur route, a simplified procedure for citizens of member and associated States. The investor route, for those contributing capital through the official channel, with direct access to permanent residency. And the solvency category, which the regulations divide into professional, employee, self-employed, remote worker, property owner, company partner and retiree, among others.
Each route demands different documents, timelines and evidence. Choosing the wrong one means rebuilding the entire file.
Because of the order, not missing documents. Documents issued in Paraguay must be dated after the record of entry into the country. A certificate issued before the entry is registered, or out of sequence, invalidates the whole set and forces you to start again.
It is not intuitive and it is signposted nowhere. It is the most expensive mistake and the most common.
Within the three months before the temporary residency card expires. Not earlier, not later. It is a window, not an open deadline.
Temporary residency is granted for up to two years. Missing that window means starting over from temporary residency.
In your home country, apostilled: birth certificate, civil status certificate where applicable, and criminal record certificate. Plus a valid passport and proof of solvency for your category.
Once in Paraguay: the record of entry into the country, an INTERPOL background certificate, the National Police background certificate for foreigners, and the sworn declarations of respect for the Constitution and of the activity to be carried out.
Residency already resolved, plus the proof of life and residence issued by the police station of your district. It is required at this stage and not before: by then you have a real address in the country.
The INTERPOL and National Police background certificates are requested again, current at the date of application. The official issuance period is 90 business days.
After the national ID. The sequence is residency, ID card and lastly the tax number: each document unlocks the next and no stage can be brought forward.
The tax number also settles which tax regime applies to your profile, which differs depending on whether you operate as an individual, a sole proprietorship or a company.
