Philippines to Paraguay visa requirements

As of June 2026, a Philippine ordinary passport holder still needs to obtain a visa before traveling to Paraguay for tourism. A bilateral visa-waiver agreement for ordinary passports was signed on 11 May 2026, but it has NOT yet entered into force and no effective date has been announced, so do not rely on visa-free entry yet. Apply at the Consulate General of Paraguay in Manila. The Philippines and Paraguay signed a Visa Waiver Agreement for ordinary passport holders on 11 May 2026 at Malacanang Palace, witnessed by Presidents Marcos and Pena. However, per Paraguay's official visa policy this agreement has NOT yet entered into force, and Philippine and Paraguayan authorities have not published an effective date or the permitted length of stay. Many travel aggregators have prematurely flagged Paraguay as "visa-free" for Filipinos based on the signing or on a December 2025 executive announcement, but the legal instrument must be ratified and gazetted before it takes effect. Because a confirmed no-visa channel cannot be verified as currently active, the conservative and accurate position for travel as of mid-2026 is that a visa is required. Filipinos should apply through the Consulate General of Paraguay in Manila with passport, application form, photos, proof of funds, accommodation, and onward travel. Travelers should re-check official sources shortly before departure, as the waiver is expected to take effect in the near term and will likely permit 30 to 90 days visa-free for tourism once in force.
