Key PointsParaguay logged 3.66 million international visitors in 2025, a 91.24% jump, driven mainly by neighbors.
Paraguay spent years as South America’s “in-between” country, crossed more than chosen.
Official migration data compiled by the National Tourism Secretariat, Senatur, show 3,657,194 international visitors entered last year.
Senatur estimates tourism generated about $1.422 billion in 2025, nearly doubling the scale seen a year earlier.
In 2024, Paraguay reported more than 2.2 million international visitors and about $766 million in tourism income.
