If you are Paraguayan, have contracted a marriage abroad and wish to homologate it in the country, below I will tell you what to do.
Remember that this step is necessary before you can apply for your cédula as a married woman and later, your spouse can obtain the Paraguayan cédula.
What is needed?
- Marriage Certificate legalized by the Paraguayan consulate in the country of origin (for countries subscribed to the Hague Convention, only the apostille stamp is required).
- Legalization of the marriage certificate by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Paraguay (only if it bears the seal of the Paraguayan consulate of the country of origin).
- Translation (if necessary)
- Photocopy of civil identity card of the contracting parties
- Certificate of life and residence of one of the contracting parties
- Nota dirigida al director del Registro Civil de las Personas solicitando la inscripción.

Hello, I want to register my marriage from abroad here in the civil registry, I am Paraguayan and my husband is German.
I have to present the life and residence of my husband also or it is enough with mine, since I am alone in Paraguay at the moment.
And it has to be via judicial or it can be done privately having all the documents.
Can I give a relative a power of attorney so that he can do the paperwork for me or do I have to do it personally?
Bs ns. I have a question. Do you have a model of the document to request the validation of a marriage celebrated abroad? Or does the Registry provide the document?
Hello Veronica,
There is no specific format, it is a simple note addressed to the Director of the Civil Registry of persons requesting the registration of the marriage, attaching the certificate of life and residence of both, the original apostilled marriage certificate and copies of the identity documents of both.
If you would like us to help you with the paperwork, please write to us at consultas@gestoriaenparaguay.com.py.
Best regards,

GOOD MORNING.
The person needs to know the following: she is a Paraguayan married in the United States, she needs to renew her passport with her married name, they reside in the United States, if the registration of the marriage must be done through the courts, because they told her so in public records.
Thank you very much

Hello, my consultation is the following I have been married for 23 years with an Argentinean citizen, I am Paraguayan, we have 2 children in common and a grandchild all Argentineans, in my Paraguayan ID card it still shows single marital status, I would love that this year that I have to renew it I can appear as married and with the last name of my husband, we do not reside in Paraguay we only spend our summer vacations, would it be possible to legalize my marriage? Or is it only for those who reside in Paraguay? Thank you very much
Hi Maria Esther, thank you for writing us!
If possible, if you have not opted for Argentine nationality you can renew your cédula as married, but first you must register your marriage at the Civil Registry of Persons, for this you must bring your marriage certificate apostilled. The process takes 20 days on average. Please send me an email to consultas@gestoriaenparaguay.com.py and we will send you all the requirements.
