About reloPY
reloPY was founded by a Polish-Canadian entrepreneur who spent decades navigating immigration systems across four continents - and eventually found something rare in Paraguay.
The Founder
Piotr studied International Business & Relations at university in Poland, then did what the degree implied - he left. He immigrated to Canada and spent seven years working through one of the most demanding citizenship processes in the world. He built a window cleaning and engineering business from the ground up, eventually operating across two provinces. In 2019 he got his citizenship. Then spent nearly three years on the Spanish island of Gran Canaria. Good years - until they weren't.
"I spent seven years earning that passport. And then I looked around and realised the place I'd been trying to get to had become somewhere I didn't recognise."
Having already lived and held residencies across multiple countries - including the UK and Dubai - he knew what it felt like to move, to adapt, to rebuild. So he started researching. Paraguay kept coming up. Territorial tax. No tax on foreign income. A genuine residency that didn't require you to live there full-time. He'd been working in the crypto space for six years by this point and understood exactly what that meant structurally. He flew to Asunción, did his due diligence, and made the call.
The Team
Piotr didn't build reloPY alone. He assembled a team of immigration specialists, certified translators, and tax and legal experts - people who have been working inside the Paraguayan system for years and have built the kind of relationships with local administration that make processes move faster than they otherwise would. That network is what most people trying to do this on their own simply don't have access to.
Between us, we work in seven languages - which means wherever you're coming from, you're talking to someone who understands not just the language but the specific concerns, tax systems, and bureaucratic habits of your home country.
Why Paraguay
Paraguay isn't on most people's radar. That's part of why it still works. Here's what makes it genuinely different from Panama, Georgia, Dubai, or any of the other "tax-friendly country" options you've probably already researched.
Paraguay only taxes income earned inside Paraguay. If you earn remotely, trade crypto, run an offshore company, or receive dividends from abroad - none of it is taxable here. This isn't a loophole. It's how the system is designed.
Asunción is one of the cheapest capitals in South America. A comfortable apartment in a good neighbourhood runs $400-700/month. Eating out costs a fraction of what you'd pay in Toronto, Madrid, or Dubai. For those looking to stretch their budget even further, life outside the city brings costs down considerably.
Paraguay has avoided the economic crises that have hit Argentina, Venezuela, and Brazil. It runs a balanced budget, has low public debt, and the guaraní has been one of the most stable currencies in the region for over a decade. It's not exciting - that's the point.
Asunción has fast internet, modern shopping centres, and a growing expat community. The pace of life is calmer than Buenos Aires or São Paulo. It's not for everyone - but for people who want a real base that isn't performatively expensive, it delivers.
A Paraguay cédula (national ID) is a real, recognised document. It gives you access to the banking system, lets you open a RUC (tax ID), and - after 3 years - a path to citizenship and one of the most functional passports for visa-free travel in the region.
Paraguay has no capital gains tax on crypto held personally. There's no CFC regime and no controlled-foreign-corporation rules to worry about. Combined with Paraguay's territorial system and the right LLC structure, it's one of the most straightforward jurisdictions for crypto professionals in the world.
Why reloPY
Most immigration consultants treat information as their product. They keep the process vague so you stay dependent on them. We do the opposite - everything you need to know is free.
The full residency process - every document, every step, every cost - is published in our free guide. No upsells hidden behind a paywall. No vague "it depends" answers. You can do this entirely on your own if you want to.
Piotr went through this process himself. The team processes residencies regularly. We know where it gets slow, what paperwork trips people up, and - just as importantly - who the right people are and how things actually get done here. Over time we've built the right connections with the people who matter in this process.
We understand how crypto income interacts with Paraguay's territorial tax system and what it means for your specific situation. For us this isn't an afterthought - it's one of the main reasons reloPY exists.
Our Fast Track package is the fastest Paraguay residency service on the market. One day. One visit. We handle everything - documents, translations, appointments, DHL shipping. You show up, we take care of the rest.
We work with freelancers, remote workers, business owners, crypto professionals, and retirees who have decided that where they live and where they pay tax is a choice worth making. Whatever your situation, we've likely seen it before.
