Entry/Exit Requirements
"A passport and visa are required. U.S. citizens traveling
to Paraguay must submit completed visa applications in person or
by secure messenger to the Paraguayan Embassy or one of the consulates
and pay a fee. Paraguay issues visas for one-entry or multiple entries
up to the validity of the U.S. passport. Applicants under 18 years
of age traveling alone must appear with both of their parents or
a legal guardian. In case of a guardian, an original and one copy
of proof of legal guardianship are required. A document of authorization
from parents/guardian will be accepted only if it is notarized and
certified by the county clerk. Travelers entering or departing Paraguay
with regular U.S. passports will be fingerprinted. Effective January
1, 2008, some airlines will begin to include the Paraguayan airport
departure tax in the price of the airline ticket. It is recommended
that you check with your airline in order to determine whether or
not the departure tax has been included. If the tax is not included
in the airline ticket then payment would be required upon departure
in either U.S. or local currency (no credit cards or checks accepted)."
