Our lawyers handle everything locally, and a private driver accompanies you. Typically completed in 3-4 hours with one visit to Asunción. Secure document delivery via DHL. **What documents do I need for temporary residency?** - Passport (valid for at least 6 months) - Birth certificate - Criminal record (issued by country of origin, maximum 3 months old, ages 14+) - Marriage/divorce certificate (if applicable) - Visa (if applicable) All documents must be apostilled (except passport and visa). **What are the requirements to maintain temporary residency?** Temporary residents are required to enter Paraguay at least once per year. Migration authorities track entries and exits, and failing to meet the annual visit requirement can prevent the upgrade to permanent residency. A short visit is enough, but keeping the requirement current avoids unnecessary complications. **What are the requirements to maintain permanent residency?** A permanent resident must enter the territory at least once every 3 years for at least 1 full day. **Is vaccination required?** No vaccination required when traveling from the US or Europe. If coming from Brazil, Peru, or Bolivia, a Yellow Fever certificate is needed. **Is Paraguay safe?** Yes, Paraguay is a safe Latin American country. In Asunción, proper neighborhoods feel safer than many cities in Europe or the US. **What good is your service if there is no crisis in my country?** Plan B is your insurance policy - just like you cannot insure a house already on fire, you cannot prepare a backup plan when crisis has hit. Most crises come unexpectedly: documents may be unobtainable under pressure, government offices overwhelmed, and states may restrict document issuance during mass outflows. ### Tax-Free Business Setup FAQ **How much does the Tax-Free Business Setup cost?** Approximately $6,600, including Paraguay residency, tax registration, virtual offices, USA LLC formation, registered agent, EIN registration, and banking advisory. Full first-year subscription included with no additional costs. After the first year, some services are mandatory while others are optional or may no longer be needed, depending on the case. **How long does the entire process take?** Approximately 4 months from the moment of application in Paraguay. Minimum two weeks needed for document preparation before the single trip. After residency is obtained, Hacking Lives proceeds with the US-side setup, compliance items, and banking advisory. **Do I need to visit Paraguay multiple times?** The initial application can usually be handled with one short visit. Temporary residents should enter Paraguay once per year, and in the second year they need to apply for permanent residency. Once permanent, visit at least once every 3 years (can be just one day). **How does Paraguay's territorial taxation work?** Only income earned within Paraguay is taxed. Foreign income is neither taxed nor reported. You can maintain tax residency without living in Paraguay. **Who is this setup for?** Digital nomads, online entrepreneurs, freelancers, and anyone earning income online who wants to optimize their tax situation legally. Ideal for people who value location independence. **Can I live in another country while being tax resident of Paraguay?** Yes, but you must not be considered a tax resident anywhere else. Typically means not spending more than 183 days in any other country. Some countries have stricter requirements. **Is a U.S. citizen eligible for this setup?** Yes, but the strategy is different. The United States applies citizen-based taxation, taxing worldwide income for all US passport holders regardless of where they live, so Paraguay residency alone is not a zero-tax solution. Hacking Lives can advise on Paraguay residency as a Plan B and discuss compliant options such as Puerto Rico Act 60 and bona fide residency planning where appropriate. **Are there ongoing requirements or fees?** USA LLC requires mandatory state fees and registered agent services. First year fully covered. After that, yearly subscription available covering required maintenance, optional services, IRS yearly reporting for the LLC, and FinCEN FBAR guidance or filing support where applicable. ### General FAQ **What is Flag Theory and why is it important?** Flag Theory is a strategic framework for international diversification - spreading assets, businesses, and personal affairs across different jurisdictions to reduce risks and maximize opportunities. **Do you have a community?** Yes! We maintain private communities on Signal and Matrix - platforms chosen specifically to maximize the privacy and security of our clients. Client privacy is our top priority - we never share any client information and take extensive measures to protect their data. We are also deeply involved in the Bitcoin Paraguay community, actively contributing to drive Bitcoin adoption throughout the country. **Do you organize events?** Yes! We organize the Plan B conference in the Czech Republic and occasional meetups. We are also very actively involved in the Bitcoin Paraguay community, where we help push Bitcoin adoption in Paraguay through regular meetups, workshops, and other activities aimed at building a real sovereign hub in Paraguay. **Do you offer consultations?** Consultations are provided exclusively as part of comprehensive service packages for thorough, well-structured guidance. --- ## Team ### Jan Marvan - Co-founder Founder of GUN-EX and Hacking Lives.
