Hi I myself am looking for help. I haven't find anybody yet.
Hello
Pakistani nationals require a visa to enter Uruguay, even for tourist trips.

@lam40100 hi I have lived here for 7 years, a great decision in my life. I lack sufficient computer skills and think this won’t let me give my email address. So... if this is a ‘forum’ I guess you post, I respond, etc., if you still are interested, respond with a few questions....again, this country is a great place to live.
@USGringo my desire is to live in uruguay soon a possible, however my concerns are jobs and accommodation, how can I get help to settle
@USGringo Hello i have lived in uruguay for the last two years and i have a very bad opinion of this country... i really don't recommend... Mexico, Colombia, are much better countries to live, cheaper, best quality of products and services, the people is more kind and positive .
@sierrademahoma Uruguay is a safe country and this is the most important thing
@new1990 Hello, no it's not safe. A lot of thieves there, crooks, and some criminal violence increasing in Montevideo which is the main cocaine platforme in Latin America.
And the worst is the police. Lazy, violent, subjective depending if you're a relative a friend or not, gossip, etc. Of course this is not a generality but you can be chocked about their way to fix the problems.
Sierrademahoma... I suggest you stop hanging around in the cocaine neighborhoods of Montevideo.
I get it ,Uruguay didn't work for you. Some like it, some don't. Have a great day!
Take care also if you want to buy real estate, be careful with the owner but also offices, administration. They tried to steal 1500 usd from me, and more other problems.
@uru_guy why are you insulting me just because I speak the truth about Uruguay? I understand that you don't like to read bad opinions about your country but insulting me just proves that i'm right about the susceptibility and level of education here. This blog is not a propaganda for Uruguay, this blog is much better than this. It tries to reflect a real opinion of what happens in the country so that inverters would not be deceived and had to move back to other country.
@uru_guy I don't hang around inthe cocaine suburbs of Montevideo. I don't have to. Just walk in the center and you cross violent junkies under Pasta base which is the residual low quality cocaine while the best is exported to Europe through the port of Montevideo
@sierrademahoma
Hello,
I agree with you, it is for the benefit of all of us to exchange information. Well, that is why I am here on this forum. You can get some good information here and that is a starting point, just something to get you think in the right direction.
uru_guy is actually a very nice and extremely helpful person. He sometimes has a short fuse and has ruffled my feathers too, but again, he is one of the most knowledgeable and engaged people here. He is an expat like you and me, so if you feel that his reaction proves you right about the level of the here (locals), you are wrong in two ways:
- he would reflect badly only on the level of the expats
- you are doing injustice to the locals.
I have had experiences with some locals, that are hard to believe, but in both ways, positive and negative. I am happy to report that the positive ones, surpass the negative ones by far. In general I think that the Uruguayans compare favourably with many other nationals as far a helpfulness and kindness is concerned, but I do agree with you that Mexicans in general are extremely kind and humble people, that any other people will find hard to match. But do not forget that these same people will /have to) betray you to the cartels to protect their own.
I am sorry, I did not mean to lecture here or offend anyone. I actually would like to ask you for some information, if you will still talk to me:
What information do you have regarding the rise in crime in Uruguay, a claim of yours which sadly seems to be true. People who thoroughly research development in crime say the same. But I would like to know more about something specific you wrote and that is that Montevideo is one of the cocaine hubs of South America. Can you provide some statistics that would prove that?
Thank you and all the best!
@sierrademahoma Sorry if you got offended my friend but you are offering your reality and it is definitely not mine. You know a lot more about cocaine than I do. Just saying. So sorry Uruguay is not going well for you but don't try to imply that it goes so badly for everyone as I can assure you that is not the case. Have a great day!
