Always looking for inspiration
Paraguay combines stability, natural resources, tax incentives and strategic access to markets, positioning itself as a priority destination for investments in mining and exploration. Its growth projection and clear regulatory framework make it a safe bet for 2025.
10 Key Reasons to Invest in Paraguay (2025)
1- Competitive Tax Regime
Paraguay offers low taxes: 10% VAT, 10% Corporate Income Tax and 8-15% for dividends. In addition, incentives such as temporary exemptions from tariffs and VAT on the import of machinery and raw materials, especially in regimes such as Maquila (1% on added value) and Free Trade Zones.
2- Macroeconomic Stability
With an average growth of 3.7% (2006-2022) and a projection of 3.7-4.5% for 2025, Paraguay maintains controlled inflation (3.8% in 2024) and solid monetary policies. In 2024, Moody's granted it Investment Grade (Baa3), reinforcing its international credibility.
3- Renewable and Low Cost Energy
Second largest exporter of hydroelectric energy in the world (Itaipu and Yacyretá), with industrial rates among the lowest in the region, ideal for reducing operating costs in mining and manufacturing
4- Strategic Location and Access to Mercosur
Located in the heart of South America, it is the gateway to Mercosur (market of 295 million people). Projects such as bioceanic corridors and the Paraguay-Paraná Waterway facilitate regional and international transport.
5- Untapped Mineral Resources
Paraguay has reserves of uranium, titanium, gold and non-ferrous minerals. Sectors such as value-added mining are growing, with incentives for local processing and export.
6- Attractive Legal Framework for Investments
Laws such as 60/90 (tax exemptions), 117/91 (equal treatment for foreign investors) and 523/94 (Free Trade Zones) guarantee legal certainty and lasting benefits, including tax invariability for 10 years.
7- Demographic Bonus and Young Workforce
27% of the population is between 15-29 years old, offering a dynamic workforce. In addition, training programs in extractive sectors strengthen local skills.
8- Expanding Infrastructure
Road, port and energy infrastructure projects (e.g. Route 1 and PPP) are underway, with public-private participation. This improves export logistics and interconnectivity.
9- Sustainability and Environmental Management
Policies aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), promoting mining practices with low-impact technologies and environmental remediation, key for responsible projects
10- Dynamism in Complementary Sectors
Sectors such as agribusiness, light manufacturing and IT services are booming, creating a favorable ecosystem for diversifying investments and generating synergies with extractive activities.
