How Paraguay counts your stay: Tourists may stay up to 90 days from entry.
At the border
Official details are shown in English.
- Get your entry registered by Migraciones at the border; it is mandatory outside the free-transit zone with Brazil
How to avoid overstaying
- Go by your stamp or visa. The date the officer gives you is the one that counts, even if it is shorter than the maximum.
- Extend before you run out. One extension only, up to 90 more days and no longer than the period granted on entry. Apply online (paraguay.gov.py user account; upload a photo of your passport, plus proof of entry if the system has no record of it) or in person at the Dirección Nacional de Migraciones. Fee: Gs. 585,385 in cash; card payments carry a surcharge (about Gs. 598,000–605,000). Overstaying without an extension incurs a fine.
