Paraguay Residencia: Get Legal Residency In Paraguay With Expert Help

For many people around the world, moving abroad used to feel like an unreachable dream. That is changing, and Paraguay is increasingly on the radar for those seeking residency and a fresh start. At the forefront of this shift are brothers Ariel and Eduardo Muñoz, who lead Paraguay Residencia, a law firm and corporate consultancy. Their company specialises in helping foreigners obtain residency and settle successfully in Paraguay.

“It always begins with a need,” Ariel explains. “People come to us because they want to improve their quality of life, escape difficult systems, or take advantage of better tax opportunities. Paraguay provides that platform.” However, the process is far from one-size-fits-all. The brothers’ role is to guide each client from day one, helping them understand the documentation required, the legal process, and most importantly, their options.

Why people choose residency in Paraguay

According to Eduardo, the country’s appeal lies in its simplicity and openness. “Paraguay welcomes foreigners. It is one of the few countries where residency laws remain straightforward. Bureaucracy, though present, is still manageable with the right guidance.” Most clients initially seek temporary residency, valid for two years, but many later apply for permanent residency.

The flexibility does not end with residency approval. Once foreigners receive their Paraguayan ID card, known as a cédula, they gain access to key services such as banking, housing, and business registration. It is a crucial step in building a new life. Many are also drawn by Paraguay’s light tax burden, especially when compared to Europe or neighbouring countries.

Interestingly, many clients who initially come for tax reasons, end up staying. “They discover a quality of life here that surprises them,” says Ariel. “They earn in euros or dollars, but spend in guaraníes. For many, it is their first experience of true financial freedom.”

As Eduardo puts it, “Paraguay is still a hidden gem. We want to ensure that those who come here do so in the right way, with support, honesty, and a clear path forward.”

With each case, the Muñoz brothers prioritise clear communication and practical solutions. Their expertise has positioned them at the forefront of immigration services in Paraguay. In the eyes of many, they are not just professionals, but a bridge to a better life.

What sets Paraguay Residencia apart

One thing that makes the firm stand out is its deeply human, personalised approach. From responding to queries via WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram, even at odd hours, to helping translate documents in good faith before any payment is made, their priority is trust and transparency. “We never take payment before people know us,” Ariel emphasises. “They are invited to our office, no strings attached, to ensure they feel comfortable.”

Their goal is not merely to process paperwork, but to be a long-term resource for each client. Many people return months later for support with housing, school enrolment, healthcare options, or employment connections. Clients appreciate having someone they can reach out to at any stage.

This approach has served them well, with Paraguay Residencia being regularly recommended by their clients in digital nomad and expat community forums within Paraguay. They have also been hired by several of the expatriate staff on The Asunción Times team, who speak highly of the experience.

Understanding residency in Paraguay

Applicants need an original birth certificate, a criminal record certificate from their country (both apostilled), and a valid passport. If applying for permanent residency directly through the SUACE program, skipping the temporary residency stage, they must present an investment project and prove solvency. Ariel and Eduardo stress that these projects must be legitimate, no “simulations” or fake companies, as the Paraguayan Ministry of Labour checks for real compliance.

Paraguay Residencia is known for its efficiency, often completing residency processes in just a matter of weeks. Their in-depth understanding of local regulations allows them to prepare each case with exceptional precision. For those eager to settle quickly, it is a valuable advantage.

Since launching their practice, the firm has assisted over 500 clients, from every continent. Most come from Europe, Canada, USA, and Australia. Clients range from families looking to start a new life, to entrepreneurs looking to invest in Paraguay, to digital nomads seeking a legal residency and low taxes. Each case is assessed carefully. If they believe an application is likely to fail, they simply will not submit it, and won’t even charge the client. “We only move forward when we are fully confident the case will succeed.”

Transparent pricing

In an industry where it can sometimes be difficult to get a straight answer on the costs involved, Paraguay Residencia has taken a different approach. Their website clearly states their total all-inclusive price of US$1,450 per person right at the top of the homepage.

This price includes successfully receiving both the residency and the cédula, as well as all other associated costs, such as the government fees, document translations, and notary costs. The brothers’ say that in some specific situations there may be small additional fees for extra items, or services that people want or need, but in the vast majority of cases, there is nothing else to pay.
