Buying a car or motorbike in any South American country can be a mission...Paraguay is no different. Thankfully, compared to other places that we've been (ie Nicaragua) buying wheels in Paraguay is a relatively straight forward for people relocating. But it's not without its foibles, eccentricities and challenges.
Follow along with our playlist as we discuss the various different angles of buying a car/motorbike in Paraguay.
In this episode we talk about the legalities of registering a vehicle, where to buy, insurance and more.

Id love to know more about customs including autos and say a shipping container with household items, tools, furniture etc

We haven't done it ourselves but we know several people who have. I have heard that it's a more straight forward process if you are freighting from Germany. The reason being that many have done it before so there are some solid processes in place. There's many things to consider. Any electrical household items run the risk of damage due to condensation. I know of someone who had a lot of their kitchen appliances ruined that way. If we were to attempt bringing a container in we would want someone knowledge in the process, fluent in Spanish and at this end to liaise with Customs. It can be a sticky process. It's worth bearing in mind that you can just about anything here so sentimental considerations aside you really need to calculate whether not it's financially viable to freight a lot items here.

@@justintimber5058 You've never had an issue so that means nobody ever must have either. Ok, whatever 🙄. What kind of items do you import and where from? Happy to hear your views and appreciate that you'll keep your manners in check. From my comments you don't know where my friends freighted from, what delays they had along the way, so I suggest you avail yourself of more info before you go about trying to insult people.

Here in Morocco you must have a resident card to buy a car or motor bike. So good luck with that.

what a fab episode. I hate buying cars it's always such a hit and miss thing. Loved the up beat music and the scenic drive, your vids always make we want to give Paraguay a go but I've got cold feet.

Thanks for watching. Yes, I'm not a car buying fan either, but the good thing is that in Paraguay you can still buy cheap n cheery cars that don't cost a second mortgage. Not many Teslas and Porches here. I understand your hesitation about moving. It's a big call. That's why we have our channel, so people can see before they make any decisions.

Good stuff Adam. Let's imagine i purchase a second-hand car and go for a private agreement. A few months or years later, i want to move to Argentina with my car. Can i do the cedula for that car or not?

@ADirtCheapLifeParaguay Ай бұрын

Hey Julien. If you do a private contract and months later want to transfer it to your name (on the cedula verde) it's a hassle. We know people that did that and it took months to get the cedula verde into their name.

The $135 for insurance, is that per month or an annual price for the 3rd party insurance?

@ADirtCheapLifeParaguay Ай бұрын

Annual.

Can you buy a car in a company name?

@ADirtCheapLifeParaguay Ай бұрын

Not sure sorry - you would probably need to check with a lawyer regarding that option. Get in touch if you need an English speaking lawyer here in Paraguay 🙂
