Why Choose Investment Over Standard Residency?
Most applicants choose the standard Temporary Residency because it is cheaper. However, the Investment (SUACE) route is the “VIP Lane” for serious applicants.
Here is why investors choose this path:
1. Skip the Temporary Phase
Standard residency requires you to hold a temporary card for 2 years before you can upgrade.
Investment Residency grants you Permanent Residency immediately.
You skip the 2-year waiting period entirely.
2. “One and Done” Paperwork
With standard residency, you must file paperwork now, and then file again in two years to upgrade.
With Investment Residency, you file once.
You receive your 10-year Permanent Residency card and do not need to worry about immigration paperwork again for a decade.
3. Stronger Business & Banking Profile
Having Permanent Residency immediately signals to banks and partners that you are fully committed to the country.
This often makes opening high-tier business bank accounts and securing credit easier.
The Verdict: If you want to save money, choose Temporary Residency. If you want to save time and secure your permanent status now, choose Investment Residency.

Make international transfers with a local base
Property Ownership

Can I Open a Bank Account?

Residency provides both financial flexibility and the legal framework to secure assets in Paraguay.
Family Residency in Paraguay
Residency in Paraguay is available not just for individuals, but also for entire families, making it one of the most family-friendly relocation programs in South America.
Who Can Be Included?
Spouse or registered partner
Children under 18 (or older if financially dependent)
Dependent parents in some cases
Application Process
Each family member submits their own application
Requirements are almost identical to the main applicant (passport, birth certificate, criminal record, local address)

International and bilingual schools at reasonable cost
Safe, welcoming communities with family-oriented culture

In an unpredictable global landscape, a robust “Plan B” is not just a luxury, it’s a necessity for astute investors. Paraguay offers a strategic residency-by-investment pathway, providing an invaluable safety net for you and your assets.
