Frequently asked questions
How many guaraníes do I need to buy 1 dollar?
The PYG → USD rate above is the inverse of the wholesale USD/PYG rate. On the street, buying dollars always costs a bit more than selling them due to the buy/sell spread that exchange houses apply.
How do I save in dollars if I earn in guaraníes?
It's common practice in Paraguay. Banks and cooperatives offer USD accounts; alternatively you can hold cash in a safe-deposit box or use digital platforms. In Monarka you can keep one PYG account for spending and a USD one for savings, viewing total net worth converted at the day's rate.
When should I exchange guaraníes to dollars?
There's no magic moment. The calmest strategy is converting a fixed percentage every month (DCA) without trying to call the bottom. Looking at the 90-day chart helps you see if you're near a recent low, but it doesn't guarantee anything going forward.
What taxes apply when exchanging guaraníes to dollars?
In Paraguay there are no direct taxes on standard retail FX purchases. The only cost is the implicit spread of the exchange house. For larger amounts, anti-money-laundering identification rules may apply.
