The case analysis answers in 3 business days: whether it validates, what's missing and how long it takes.

Heading to permanent residency?The diploma becomes a requirement.

Anyone who entered temporary residency declaring to be a professional or technician must prove it in permanency: a degree registered and endorsed by the MEC, an active tax life and demonstrated solvency (IPS, an approved contract or VAT for the last 3 months / income tax for the last year with activity). The degree alone, says Res. DNM 407/2026, does not prove solvency.

A validated diploma and a live RUC go together. The rule requires the degree and actual practice, and what keeps that practice visible to Migraciones is your accounting. The Personal Package handles the RUC, VAT and income tax all year long: when the time comes for the category change, the proof already exists.

Validated diploma
CONES + MEC

It's what turns your foreign degree into a degree Paraguay recognizes, and that the MEC endorses.

Active RUC
your tax life

The Taxpayer Registry (RUC) is the start of your fiscal life. Without it, there's no way to invoice or prove income.

Proven solvency
practiced and earned

IPS, a contract endorsed by the Ministry of Labor, or VAT/income tax returns with real activity.

The ID card is not required to validate the diploma. But to practice the profession, invoice and prove solvency, the set goes together: ID card, RUC and validated diploma. Romper handles all three ends.

The two ways

With a shortcut, it fails.With a dossier, it moves.

The queue's timeline belongs to the government, the same for everyone. What changes is how many times your case goes back to the start.

Generic “method”The same recipe for every diploma (no curriculum, no field, none of your case).
Requirement rejectedWrong translation, missing apostille, syllabus out of format: the filing bounces back.
Back to the end of the queueMonths lost, the fee paid again, and the diploma stalled.

How it works

From analysis to degree,in the right order.

01 · Case analysis
3 business daysWhether it validates or not, how your curriculum stands, whether there's an exam or coursework in your field, and the estimated time. The amount paid is fully credited toward the validation if you sign up within 30 days.
02 · Dossier
Documentation in the right formatSworn translations, apostilles, syllabi and course curriculum (assembled by the team, to be accepted on the first try).
03 · Filing
CONES + MECFiling with both agencies, follow-up on every requirement and a response within each stage's deadline.
04 · Course curriculum
Comparison, and whatever it calls forEvery validation compares your curriculum with the Paraguayan one. If it calls for coursework or an exam, you already know from the analysis. The classes and exams are given by institutions accepted by CONES and MEC, in Spanish. Romper points you where and follows every step.
05 · Validated degree
Registered and endorsedYou receive the CONES resolution and your degree registered and endorsed by the MEC, the document Paraguay recognizes. In healthcare, there may be an exam beforehand; in law, the closing step is the oath before the Supreme Court, and Romper accompanies you all the way there.
The timeline, no makeup

The queue belongs to the government.And today it's long.

Demand at CONES and MEC hit a record, and the timelines stretched for everyone. Anyone promising less than this is selling what they don't control.

3 business days
the case analysis

The only stage on our timeline, and therefore the only one we promise.

8 to 14 months
the validation, today

It's the real range CONES + MEC have been running with the surge in applications.

2 agencies
one process

CONES and MEC, handled together by Romper, you don't chase either of them.

Each field, a path

Healthcare, Lawand all the rest.

The focus of this page is technical and bachelor's: they're the degrees that unlock the category change to permanent residency. But Romper validates other levels too.

Healthcare

Rigid curriculum, and there may be an exam

Medicine, dentistry, nursing and the like go through the toughest curriculum comparison, and the field may require an exam. The case analysis anticipates exactly what's coming.

Law

Validation + oath

After CONES + MEC, a lawyer only practices following the oath before the Paraguayan Supreme Court. Romper handles the validation and accompanies you up to the oath.

Other fields

Curriculum comparison

Engineering, business, education, technology: a curricular comparison and, when the curriculum doesn't line up, targeted coursework (mapped beforehand, with no surprise in the middle).

Other degrees

Postgraduate, master's and doctorate

We validate these too, just outside this page's standard package, because each level has its own rule. Talk to the immigration manager and your case gets quoted properly.

Romper's guarantee

Diploma validated.Or 100% of your money back.

The guarantee has two halves, and both are written here. There are steps only you can complete, and there's everything else, which is our responsibility. Once yours is done, ours is guaranteed.

What the guarantee doesn't cover: a public agency's timeline. CONES and MEC have been running late, and a government date isn't something we promise. We promise the result and the handling, not the queue.

Validated degree with the MEC's endorsement on the table, a handshake in the background.
Your part
Genuine documentationAuthentic diploma, transcript and syllabi, from the program you actually completed.
Curriculum courseworkIf the comparison shows a gap, take what the agency requires, at an institution accepted by CONES and MEC, in Spanish.
Exams in your fieldWhen the field requires an exam, show up and pass, in Spanish, as the agency administers it. That's the one thing no one does for you.
Oath and appearancesIn law, the oath before the Supreme Court; and the acts only the holder can sign.
Our part
Dossier accepted on the first trySworn translations, apostilles, syllabi and curriculum in the format each agency expects.
Filing and requirementsFiling with CONES and MEC and every requirement answered within its deadline.
Handling all the way throughBoth agencies handled by Romper, you don't chase either one.
Administrative guaranteeDid our part fail? Your money comes back.

Did you do your part? Then ours is guaranteed: diploma validated. Or 100% of your money back. It's the commitment of the largest immigration operation in Paraguay, and it goes written into the contract.

Who answers for your case

A lawyer answers.With a first and last name.

Validation isn't solved with an internet method: it's solved by knowing the rule, the agency and the format each one accepts. At Romper that has someone responsible: Dr. Marco Sotana, Romper's lawyer.

  • The rule by name. Romper knows what the rule requires of professionals and technicians (an endorsed degree, a tax life and the accepted ways to prove solvency), and what, on its own, isn't enough.
  • The right institutions. Coursework and exams only count at an institution accepted by CONES and MEC. Romper knows which ones they are, and sends you to the right one the first time.
  • Through to the last act. Including the oath before the Supreme Court, when your profession requires it. No one hands off the case halfway.
  • We publish what the market hides. The real queue timeline, the price on screen and the cases Romper turns down. Anyone with something to hide doesn't write that on a website.

What the internet sells

A validation shortcutdoesn't exist.

These are the four promises that most often reach our desk, after they've gone wrong:

“Express validation”

No Paraguayan agency has an express lane. Anyone promising speed is selling someone else's place in line.

The miracle PDF

A generic recipe doesn't answer curriculum, exam or field, and a wrong dossier sends your case back to the end of the queue.

“No need to validate”

For a regulated profession, you do. Practicing without validation is illegal practice, with your name in the middle of it.

“Mercosur is automatic”

It's simpler, not automatic. The process exists all the same, with the same agencies.

Talk to the manager
Sworn translations and apostilles are passed through separately, disclosed before the contract; the official agency fees are already included in the price. Exams and coursework, when the field requires them, have their own official costs. The analysis credit is valid for 30 days: past that deadline, the case is analyzed again, because Paraguayan rules have been changing with the volume of immigrants.
Where Romper says no

The questions that come before the analysis

Direct answers. What depends on your diploma, the case analysis answers in writing.

Do I need a Paraguayan ID card to validate the diploma?
To validate, no. To practice the profession, invoice and prove solvency in permanency, the set goes together: ID card, RUC and validated diploma. Romper handles all three ends.
I graduated outside Mercosur. Does anything change?
The complexity changes, not the door: Mercosur is simpler, and Romper validates diplomas from any country in the world. The case analysis tells the path of yours.
How long does the validation take?
Today, between 8 months and 1 year and 2 months, the high demand stretched the agencies' queue. The estimated time for YOUR case comes out in the analysis, in 3 business days.
What is the course curriculum comparison?
Every validation compares your program's subjects with the Paraguayan curriculum. If content is missing, there's targeted coursework, and the analysis already says whether your case has any.
I'm in healthcare. Will I take an exam?
There may be an exam. It's the most demanding field. The case analysis answers whether your training comes in with an exam, with coursework or straight through.
I'm a lawyer. What changes for me?
After the validation, practicing law requires an oath before the Supreme Court. Romper handles the validation and accompanies you up to the oath.
What exactly does the guarantee cover?
The result: once your case's mandatory steps are met (documentation, coursework and exams when required) it's 100% validated or 100% of your money back. A public agency's timeline isn't part of the guarantee.
And if the analysis says my diploma won't validate?
You receive the written opinion and the US$ 149 aren't refunded. The analysis was work delivered. Better to find out now, for that amount, than after months and fees.
Does the analysis credit last forever?
It's valid for 30 days. After that the case needs to be analyzed again: Paraguayan rules have been changing with the volume of immigrants, and an old opinion won't serve you.
Where do I start?
With the case analysis: in 3 business days you know whether it validates, what's missing and how long, and the amount is fully credited toward the validation, signing up within 30 days.
