Approved touristic projects · from USD 150,000
Invest into an approved Paraguayan tourism project and earn your residency through capital that has the potential to return — not capital that simply sits.
The route
The tourism route lets you satisfy the Investor Pass with an investment of USD 150,000 into an approved tourism development. Paraguay's tourism track exists precisely to channel foreign capital into the sector — which means your qualifying investment can carry the potential for a project-linked return rather than functioning as a sunk cost.
It sits between the owned-asset certainty of real estate and the lower entry points below it: a route for investors who want their residency capital deployed into something productive, without taking on the operational weight of running a company themselves.

Why this route
Your qualifying investment is deployed into a real development with the potential to generate a return.
At USD 150,000, the tourism route sits below the property threshold while keeping your capital invested.
You participate as an investor, not an operator — no company to run, no day-to-day to manage.
We surface diligenced tourism projects rather than leaving you to find — and vet — them alone.
Paraguay's tourism sector is early and under-built — exactly where considered capital tends to be rewarded.
The tourism route leads to the identical residency and citizenship pathway as every other route.
Approved projects
The tourism route deploys from USD 150,000 into approved tourism developments, with a business plan and periodic progress reporting. We maintain a current portfolio of diligenced, eligible projects.
We curate and diligence a rotating shortlist of approved tourism developments — from boutique hospitality to wellness and eco-tourism. Request the current portfolio for live availability, ticket sizes, and projected returns.
Each project is screened on its own commercial standing before it is considered as a residency vehicle — approval status, developer track record, business plan, and reporting all checked.
Specific projects are shared on enquiry and are independent third-party developments. Inclusion is not an endorsement, and qualification depends on the project's approval and on meeting the tourism-track criteria. Returns are projections, not guarantees.
Tourism route
The tourism route requires an investment of at least USD 150,000 into an approved tourism project.
It can. The route is built around developments that carry the potential for a project-linked return, so your qualifying capital can work while it supports your residency. Returns depend on the specific project and are never guaranteed.
Approved tourism developments are projects recognised within Paraguay's tourism framework. We curate and diligence eligible projects so your investment both qualifies for residency and stands on its own merits.
No. The tourism route is designed for passive participation — you invest as a stakeholder rather than operating the development yourself.
Yes. The tourism route feeds into the same Investor Pass framework — Foreign Investor Certificate, permanent residency, and eligibility to naturalise after the constitutional residence period.
