Paraguay offers permanent residency to foreign nationals who invest in the country, and Bangladeshi nationals apply on the same terms as other applicants. This page sets out the route and where to confirm the current rules.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
There is no nationality bar that excludes Bangladeshi applicants from Paraguay residency. Applicants must be at least 18 years of age, hold a clean criminal record, pass Interpol checks and sign a sworn declaration on the lawful origin of their investment funds.
Documents that confirm the availability of funds are generally expected to be recent. Confirm the precise documentary rules and any apostille or translation requirements with the official authority before you commit.
Paraguay introduced an investor pathway in 2026 under Resolution 0283/2026, which grants direct permanent residency to foreign nationals who make a qualifying investment. The framework recognises investment through productive business, real estate, financial instruments and tourism projects.
This investor route is designed to bypass the standard temporary residency stage that applies to other immigration pathways. Confirm which category fits your plans with the official authority.
Permanent residency under the investor route is granted directly rather than after a two year temporary stage. Processing time depends on the completeness of the file and due diligence.
Permanent residency must be maintained by visiting Paraguay at least once every three years. Failure to do so may result in cancellation of the permit. Confirm the current condition with the official authority.
The dominant cost is the qualifying investment itself, which is held as an asset rather than spent. Government and professional costs are separate. Use the table as a checklist and confirm each figure with the official authority.

| Productive business investment route | From about US$70,000 | Under Resolution 0283/2026 |
