Last week, I overreacted<\/a> when the Los Angeles Consulate of Paraguay<\/a> was closed on Friday due to Easter. I went back to the Los Angeles Paraguayan consulate<\/a> near LAX Airport on Monday at 9am and the process was very simple. There was basically no one waiting and only one person was working in the office. I handed over my passport, visa application, a passport photo, and $160 USD in cash. He told me that it would be available for pick up the next day!<\/p>\n

I was ecstatic about the fast turnaround time and shocked at how simple this was. I went back Tuesday morning and had my passport back within 24 hours! This is what a Paraguayan VISA looks like. It’s good for multiple entries into Paraguay valid for entry up to 90 days each time.<\/p>\n

\"paraguayvisa\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are the steps I took to obtain a multiple entry visa to Paraguay which is good for the life of your passport.<\/p>\n

1. Fill out the Paraguayan visa form in .DOC format<\/a> or .PDF format<\/a>. I prefer the .DOC format because it’s editable into Microsoft Word, whereas the PDF isn’t edit friendly.<\/p>\n

2. Obtain a passport picture. Contrary to what the website said, you only need to submit 1 passport photo (website said two) and tape it on the top left corner of the visa application.<\/p>\n

3. Have $160 USD ready in cash if you’re going in person.<\/p>\n

4. Find your nearest consulate<\/a>. There aren’t many Paraguayan consulates available in the world, so you might have to resort to an online passport visa processing service (extra cost).<\/p>\n

I highly recommend getting a physical passport visa to Paraguay instead of the VISA on Arrival. A physical passport visa allows you to enter Paraguay from the borders of Brazil and Argentina without heading to Asuncion International Airport. In addition, a physical visa ensures that you can enjoy Paraguay multiple times for $160 whereas if you received a visa on arrival stamp, it’s only good for 90 days for the same price.<\/p>\n
