How to obtain a residence permit and a Paraguayan passport under the new rules

The Paraguayan passport allows visa-free travel to Schengen (28 European countries), Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, Cyprus, South Africa and Latin America. It is Paraguayan citizenship that allows you to move freely around the world and leave almost any destination from your country of residence in a short period of time. 
In the current political and economic situation, many people are considering obtaining a second citizenship or moving temporarily to another country. One option is to obtain a Paraguayan residence permit or citizenship. It is also a great opportunity to conduct business without risk and to protect your assets. 

Since October 18, 2022, a new law on migration No. 6984/2022 came into force. Let us tell you what has changed in the paperwork process.
