Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for the entire period you plan to stay in Paraguay. Paraguay does not require 6 months of validity beyond your departure date, but airlines may enforce their own rules — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Paraguay | Immigration officers at Silvio Pettirossi International Airport routinely ask for proof of onward travel. Have a printed or digital return ticket or a ticket to your next destination ready. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | While not always requested, having a hotel reservation or a letter of invitation from a host in Paraguay can speed up the immigration process. Keep a copy on your phone or printed. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Officers may ask to see evidence of sufficient funds — around $500 USD or equivalent in cash, credit cards, or bank statements. Carry a mix of cash and cards to be safe. | Recommended |
Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you land in Paraguay, not from your departure date. If it expires sooner, renew it before you go.
No visa needed — just show up
Mongolian passport holders can enter Paraguay visa-free for up to 90 days. No application, no fee, no embassy visit required.
