Applying for Paraguayan Permanent Residency from abroad by LoreLaterra

Hello friends, The Migrations Directorate has recently decided to allow foreigners apply for Permanent Residency from their home countries through Registered Service Providers and a duly legalised or apostilled Power of Attorney. They decided upon ...

My experience is that personal connections help a lot here. Taking time to get to know people from Asuncion makes the residency process go best. Read More

Bank account within EU by aristidafazendo

Hello, I am doing a research for my plan, and banking seems to be quite a issue. I'm a Slovak citizen, still living here. But due to the fact I certainly do not see my future here (and I do not get how anyone can, honestly), I want to become a ...

Glad you found a solution. Do you mean the country of Georgia or the US state of Georgia? Just curious. Read More

Hi everyone, my name is Dennis. I hope to finally become fluent in Spanish. Learning some Guarani will be a bonus. :) I certainly will have an eye out for any business opportunities but don't find that to be compelling or something I would do ...

hi Dennis. One way to learn Spanish or Guarani is to check out the Fiverr app or web site. I do not want to turn this message into some kind of advertising. Just to say that I found it useful for job hunting / resume updating, since that is once ... Read More

I regret that I do not have the answer you may be looking for, aristida. There seems to be a fee with every major financial transaction here. Is there a way you can avoid the bank completely? Or consider Panama, where I understand the banking system ... Read More

Permanent Residency - Lawyer Recommendation & Cost(s) by queloquera

I'm a U.S. Citizen planning a trip to South America in September and hoping to get Paraguayan permanent residency while I'm there. I need recommendations for a lawyer. I've been hearing Finestra Group a lot so far in my studies. I'm wondering what ...

tsamekul

Hello Queloquera. Bear with me if this is "old information" you're already aware of. Here in Asuncion people call themselves "abogado" even with the equivalent of a master's degree, not even a doctorate. And you don't really need an attorney, just ... Read More

Welcome, Dennis. I don't have a good language school to recommend. I like the Duolingo app for learning languages. As far as Guarani, on that app it is taught from "Castellano" aka Spanish. But since I'm already fluent in Spanish ... Read More
