Thailand to Paraguay visa requirements

Q: Is there an eVisa for Paraguay?

Paraguay has an online application (Visa en Línea), but it is not a full eVisa - you start online and must complete the process in person at a Paraguayan embassy or consulate.

Q: Where do Thai citizens apply since there is no embassy in Bangkok?

At the nearest accredited Paraguayan mission covering Thailand, such as Tokyo, Seoul or New Delhi. Confirm jurisdiction before applying.

Q: How much does the visa cost?

A single-entry tourist visa is roughly USD 65, with multiple-entry around USD 100. Fees are usually paid in cash or money order.

Q: How long can I stay in Paraguay?

The non-resident tourist visa generally allows a stay of up to 90 days.

Q: How early should I apply?

Apply at least about 30 days before your intended travel date, as consular processing times vary.

Thai passport holders need a visa to enter Paraguay. Thailand is not on Paraguay's visa-free or visa-on-arrival lists, so a consular tourist visa must be arranged before travel. As of June 2026, holders of an ordinary Thailand passport require a visa to enter Paraguay for tourism. Paraguay's official Migration Directorate list does not include Thailand among visa-exempt nationalities, and Paraguay's visa-on-arrival facility is limited to a small number of countries (notably Oman and Qatar) - Thailand is not eligible. Thai travelers must apply through Paraguay's Ministry of Foreign Affairs "Visa en Línea" (online) system, which handles the NO RESIDENTE (non-resident/short-stay) category for stays of up to 90 days. The online form starts the process, but applicants must complete it at a Paraguayan embassy or consulate (a personal interview is normally required; remote interviews are only allowed in justified cases). Because Paraguay has no embassy in Bangkok, Thai applicants generally use the nearest accredited Paraguayan mission (for example in Tokyo, Seoul, New Delhi or another covering post). The single-entry tourist visa fee is around USD 65 (multiple-entry roughly USD 100); you should apply at least about 30 days before departure. Visa approval does not guarantee entry - the final admission decision rests with Paraguay's migration officers at the border. Travelers should also carry a passport valid for at least six months, proof of onward/return travel, accommodation details and sufficient funds.
