I am looking for a professional residency facilitator who can help me get fast residency in Paraguay in as little as 10 days. I do not want people who are looking to make some extra money by doing this the first time. I need someone experienced who has the right contacts in immigration and can do all the translating and paperwork for me. This person needs to understand English so they can work with me also. Thanks, James

Dear James:
you are looking for somewhat which is near impossible. Even with "cash under the table" and you want it if possible for near nothing. Well, I am not in that business, but I know many people (most of them sharks) and I can tell you one thing: forget it. You need connections to the highest levels (Minister) and they won´t do it for a bakshish. The entry itself is not difficult provided you have all your documents duly stamped in your country by the Paraguayan Embassy, but the "residency", allowing you to work, will take a minimum (with a fat payment) of 6-8 weeks. Sorry not to have better news.

If you speak a little Spanish, it will cost you (bar bureaucratic fees) nothing. If you engage a "professionnal" shark, it will cost you round about 800 USD per head! It is NOT difficult and the people at the Immigration Office is very friendly. Avoid these sharks!
You need a bank deposit of, I believe, 5000 USD per adult head. It will take you up to one year to get your ID Card (Cedula) but that is not too important unless you want to work.
Do not forget that you will have to prepare papers in your country of origin and that these papers need to be checked by the Paraguayan Embassy of your country. Do not forget too, that Paraguay is quite dangerous if you live in a isolated location. Holdups to non-paraguayans are strong rising. Lethal cases no more are rare. Brutallity too is rising. Be carefull in selecting where you want to stay and secure your house. Good luck!

Regarding the period where you are waiting for your cedula to be issued. Do you recieve a resident visa for your passport or must you continue to rely on your tourism visa which must be renewed every 90 days?
Thanks!

Once you have succesfully applied (via the necessary documents) you will receive your "Mesa de Entrada" and a kind of white ID-Card. That ID-Card you must always have at hand anytime you are outside your house. THe "Mesa de Entrada" is a proof that you are applying for a Cedula. You must renew the stamp on your Mesa de Entrade every three months (this can also been done by a friend or relative). If you leave the country you must have your "Certificado de Retorno" stamped at the airport or at the customs. Both times: going out and coming back. You must apply for this document at the immigration office. Both, renewing your Mesa de Entrada or your "Certificado de Retorno" are a thing of a few minutes only. If you forget to stamp your "Certificado" you will have to pay a fine on your return to Paraguay. Looks complicated, but is NOT. You need no assistance for this. Do not ask one of these "helpers". They only will help you to get rid of your money! (:

This is a great, frank page of a type I've been looking for. Would appreciate your opinion on some things asserted about Paraguay elsewhere in another site (qwealthreport.com):
1. "you can apply after three years for citizenship, with no need to worry about family units"
2. "it’s more anarchic than Uruguay, meaning less control and more freedom… for example, nobody is really going to count how many days you are there. Having residence on paper is enough."
Suspect they're indulging in recreational hyperbole with use of the word "anarchic"-- but I am in fact looking for the practical, real-world version of things regardless of what's on paper. That seems to be your approach. The page in question links to yet more exciting (crazy?) statements which I hope are true. Thanks!

If an official Paraguayan document says that it is valid for 10 years, then there should be no changes with that time frame.
