Paraguay: Yellow Fever Vaccination Required for Certain Travelers Entering and Exiting Paraguay
September 22, 2022
Effective immediately, all travelers between the ages of one and 59 arriving from, or departing for Bolivia, Brazil, Peru or Venezuela must present a yellow fever vaccination certificate to enter or exit Paraguay. Those who have not received a vaccination against yellow fever at least 10 days before their trip may not be allowed to board their flight or may be refused entry to or exit from Paraguay. Nationals and residents of Paraguay and travelers who are unable to receive the vaccine due to medical reasons (with documentation issued by a certified medical professional) may opt out of the vaccination requirement to enter Paraguay but must be monitored by health authorities for 10 days upon arrival. The government is implementing this measure in response to outbreaks of yellow fever in these countries. Please contact your Fragomen representative for case-specific advice if you plan to enter Paraguay from or exit Paraguay to these countries.
