Paraguay

Where the governments disagree on Paraguay

The governments do not agree on Paraguay. South Korea stands alone at level 3 (reconsider non-essential travel), while the other 10 governments sit lower, from level 1 to level 2. A single outlier usually means one of two things: that government knows something specific about its own citizens' exposure, or its assessment has not caught up with the others.

Currency varies between sources. Japan's is the oldest assessment of Paraguay on file, last revised in December 2024, while the rest have been reviewed more recently. Worth weighing: the strictest rating is also the most dated, which raises the possibility that the disagreement is about when each government last looked rather than about conditions today.

The warnings for Paraguay are not uniform across the country. Four distinct areas are singled out by at least one government. Among them: Pedro Juan Caballero (border city). At least one government advises against non-essential travel to a specific area while taking a softer line on the country overall.

The level 3 rating from South Korea carries practical weight even if your own government is more relaxed — insurers commonly price against, or exclude, travel contrary to official advice, so the rating that matters most is the one issued for your passport.
