Residency

Antigua & Barbuda routes:

  • Citizenship by Investment (CBI) via fund contribution or qualifying real-estate investment
  • Standard work permits
  • Family routes including spouse, dependent children and parents under conditions

Greek residency routes:

  • Golden Visa - property investment (thresholds vary by region, recently raised)
  • Digital Nomad Visa - remote workers
  • Financially Independent Person (FIP) - passive-income individuals
  • Employment routes

Each route has different residency-day and renewal requirements.

Paraguay residency routes:

  • Permanent residency via proof of solvency / qualifying income - the standard route
  • Family inclusion on the main application

Physical-presence requirements are relatively low compared to other jurisdictions.

Company setup

IBCs are common in international structures. Reporting and substance frameworks have tightened.

IKE (Private Company), EPE (LLC), and AE (Joint Stock Company) are common structures. Greek tax residency triggers worldwide income reporting; the non-dom regime may apply to eligible high-net-worth relocators.

SRL (Limited Liability) and SA (Joint Stock) structures are available; entity setup is well-supported by local partners. Substance and reporting requirements should be confirmed at setup.

Banking

Banking is selective. KYC and source-of-funds documentation are central. Bordercase coordinates banking introductions.

Personal banking for residents is well established; corporate banking depends on activity. Bordercase coordinates introductions for non-standard structures.

Personal banking for residents is accessible. Bordercase coordinates introductions and documentation prep.

Family

CBI applications can include qualifying dependents under conditions.

Family reunification is supported on most routes. Schools (public, private, international, English-language) are available in major cities.

Family inclusion on residency applications is supported. Schools (Spanish-language and limited international) are concentrated in Asunción.
