Frequently asked questions
We solve your main doubts about the relocation process and taxation in Paraguay.
Is it necessary to live in the country to maintain residency?
To maintain legal residency, current regulations only require visiting Paraguay once every three years. However, if your goal is to obtain a tax residency certificate to present to other authorities, it is necessary to demonstrate a center of vital interests or a minimum stay, depending on each specific case.
How exactly does the 0% tax work?
Paraguay uses the territoriality system. This means that DNIT only taxes income produced within the country’s borders. If you bill services to clients abroad, receive dividends from companies outside Paraguay, or trade in international markets, those incomes are legally exempt (0%) in Paraguay.
What happens to my crypto assets?
Paraguay is currently one of the most friendly countries for digital asset holders. Capital gains derived from the sale of cryptocurrencies on international exchanges are considered foreign source and, therefore, are not subject to taxes in Paraguay for tax residents.
Can I bring my belongings and vehicle tax-free?
Upon obtaining permanent residency, there are special regimes for the importation of personal effects (“relocation”). However, vehicle importation is subject to specific Customs regulations that we recommend consulting in our vehicle importation section.
