Frequently Asked Questions
How much can Chinese save with Paraguay residency?
Chinese citizens can save $50,000 to $200,000+ per year. With China's income tax up to 45%, increasing global taxation enforcement, and capital controls, Paraguay's territorial system provides a legal path to reduce tax burden.
Do Chinese need to give up their citizenship?
No. Chinese citizens can hold Paraguay permanent residency without renouncing Chinese citizenship. However, China does not formally recognize dual citizenship, so taking Paraguayan citizenship would mean losing Chinese nationality.
What is the process for Chinese to get Paraguay residency?
Chinese citizens need a visa to enter Paraguay, which adds a step to the process. Once in Paraguay, permanent residency can be obtained within 4-6 weeks with a criminal record certificate, proof of income, and a bank deposit of approximately $5,500.
Is there an exit tax when leaving China?
China does not have a formal exit tax, but has strict capital controls on outflows and is tightening enforcement of worldwide taxation rules. Establishing genuine non-residency requires careful planning with Chinese tax authorities.
How long do Chinese need to stay in Paraguay?
Paraguay requires no minimum stay for permanent residents. A visit once every 3 years maintains your residency, though Chinese citizens should ensure they comply with both Paraguayan visa requirements and Chinese overseas reporting rules.
