Our ecosystem


A tax hub in South America.
Settling in Paraguay means adopting purely territorial taxation (your foreign-source income is not taxed, whether remitted or not), in the heart of a South America that is accessible, safe and affordable.
Whether you are self-employed, an entrepreneur, an investor or retired, there is a residency route to match, and BlueVisa handles your entire application online, through to the ID card (cédula) and tax residency.
An expat community settling in
A residency that lasts
Temporary residency for up to 2 years, then permanent residency through a change of category, with the cédula de identidad valid for 10 years; the key to daily life (banking, leases, exchanges).
An easy, affordable lifestyle
Subtropical climate averaging around 23 °C, one of the safest countries in South America, with a cost of living 30 to 40% below Paris.
Family included
Your spouse and children each file their own residency application alongside yours, based on apostilled and translated civil records. Your spouse obtains their own residency, which allows them to study and work in Paraguay.
No threshold, no company
The standard residency route sets no income or investment threshold. No company to set up: you stay self-employed in your own name, with a simple personal tax ID (RUC) if you are aiming for tax residency.

How much more do you keep in Paraguay?
A French SASU vs a Paraguayan company (EAS)
Illustrative example. France: corporate tax (15% up to €42,500, then 25%) plus the 30% flat tax on dividends. Paraguay: an EAS company operated from Paraguay; corporate tax (IRE) at 10% on locally sourced profit, then dividend tax (IDU) at 8% on distribution (foreign-source income stays at 0%). To be confirmed with your adviser.
Territorial taxation: 0% on your foreign income.
Work outside PY, pensions, dividends; remitted or not.
Foreign-source gains are not taxed.
No inheritance tax, no gift tax, no wealth tax.
Tax on Paraguayan-source profit.
Low rate on activity carried out in Paraguay.
Distribution from a Paraguayan company (15% non-resident).
