ASUNCIÓN, Paraguay, April 20 (UPI) -- Paraguay has launched the "Investor Pass" program, which allows foreigners to obtain direct permanent residency through a minimum investment of $150,000 and eliminates the requirement of job creation, officials said.
Local media reported that the Paraguayan government presented the initiative in Brazil as part of a strategy to attract foreign capital and position the country as a competitive destination for international investors.
The program, promoted by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce and the National Directorate of Migration, allows access to permanent residency without fulfilling the prerequisite of two years of temporary residency.
