Obtaining a Paraguayan Visa

Just to bump up the address of where you would get a visa for Paraguay here in Baires;

Consulate is Viamonte 1851 (at Av Callao)

"Agencia Paraguay" (for your photos) is 1821 Viamonte.

Both open at 8am

I noticed in the US State Department website the following requirement:

USA Citizens arriving by air may obtain a "Visa en Arribo" (visa upon arrival) at Silvio Pettirossi International Airport in Asuncion. The current fee is $160, payable in USA Currency (credit cards not accepted). If not arriving at Silvio Pettirossi International Airport, prior to traveling to Paraguay, you must apply for a visa in person or by secure messenger at the Paraguayan Embassy in Washington, DC, or the nearest Paraguayan consulate, and you must pay a fee.

This is a change from before when US citizen had to get a visa ahead of time. I wonder how long the Visa en Arribo is good for. My visa is good for multiple entries for the life of the passport.

And take note that if you happen to be on a flight with a handful of people who need one, it is a slow process. They use technology from the early 90's to do it. Or just make sure you are first in line.

All US citizens need a visa to enter Paraguay. This is the catch. You can buy it at the airport upon arrival For $160.00 cash and its good for 90 days but if you buy it at a Paraguay consulate or embassy in the USA its still $160.00 but its good for the life of your passport. If you are making a connection in MIA its possible take public transportation to the Paraguay consulate and get back to the airport for a late flight out.

If I were in Buenos Aires and wanted to go to Paraguay, I would go to the Paraguayan Embassy to get my visa just because the women working there are so smoking hot. They are very nice, too.

I have been to 43 countries and [B]nothing[/B] fucks like a paraguaya.
