There are two numbers in circulation for Paraguayan residency, and they are not two estimates of the same thing. One is printed on a government fee schedule. The other is the price of a service that stands between you and it.<\/p>

The round figure that travels with Paraguay is five thousand dollars. The Direcci\u00f3n Nacional de Migraciones publishes its own price for permanent residence, and on 1 September 2026 it was 2,926,925 guaran\u00edes in cash, about 495 dollars.<\/strong> The Polic\u00eda Nacional publishes a separate price for the c\u00e9dula that permanent residence entitles you to, and that one is 8,500 guaran\u00edes, about a dollar and a half. Add the residence certificate the c\u00e9dula application requires and the state’s own line items come to roughly 3,169,579 guaran\u00edes, about 536 dollars, read on the two agencies’ own pages on 1 September 2026.<\/p>

That is not the whole cost of getting there, and this article does not pretend it is. Apostilles, sworn translations, notarised copies and plane tickets are real and are not on any government tariff. What the tariff settles is a narrower question that gets answered wrongly a lot: how much of the five thousand is the state, and how much is the seller.<\/strong><\/p>
