Your Administrative Life, Handled

RUC and accounting in Paraguay, without thinking about it.

Once your residency is obtained, there's still administrative life to manage: tax number, filings, accounting. We take care of it for you, in English, with our administrative team based in Asunción.

The Principle

The RUC is your tax identity in Paraguay.

The RUC (Registro Único del Contribuyente) is the tax identification number issued by the DNIT (Dirección Nacional de Ingresos Tributarios, the Paraguayan tax administration, formerly SET). It's what officially links you to the country's tax system, and it goes hand in hand with your tax residency certificate.

Having a RUC also creates obligations : depending on your profile and regime, monthly filings (including IVA) and annual ones (including IRP or IRE) to submit, books to keep, deadlines to meet. Nothing complicated when it's followed up, but a source of trouble the moment a filing is missed or filled out wrong, in Spanish, from a distance.

How we work: opening a RUC triggers monthly filing obligations, even with zero activity ("zero" filings). So we first define the actual use you'll make of it before opening it, rather than creating a number that becomes a source of penalties if left unattended.

Keep in mind

  • The RUC is essential for your tax residency, for invoicing, or for opening a company.
  • Some filings may be due even without activity (zero filing).
  • The VAT (IVA) in Paraguay is 10%, among the lowest in the world.
  • Clean accounting is your best protection, here as well as toward your home country.
