Cost of Living in Asuncion. Prices Updated Dec 2020.

First of all, to acquire permanent residency in Paraguay you need to deposit 25 million Guarani with the central bank (around 4400$US). You need a few other documents such as a criminal background check, birth certificate etc.

You need to fly there and apply in person (on your own or with the help of a local immigration attorney). You can complete the whole process in a few days but I recommend spending a month in town just to make sure.

A few months later you receive your ID card (cedula) and voila, you are a PR.

That being said, you can’t become a citizen easily. The only way at the moment is to spend three years IN the country and prove significant local ties (a local business, a wife/husband, lots of friends etc).

I wrote an article on the subject a few months ago:

Неужели таков наш ничтожный удел: Быть рабами своих вожделеющих тел? Ведь ещё ни один из живущих на свете. Вожделений своих утолить не сумел.
