Thinking of moving to Paraguay
im an Egyptian citizen and currently living in cairo, I want to leave my country due to its unrest, i thought in paraguay as an option , i need to know what jobs could be available given that my spanish is little, I am basically an english teacher and i have also experience in working as a casino dealer, I am ready to learn more spanish or work other jobs if they give me my basic needs. So what are the chances there ? thank you for all, all your comments will be greatly appreciated.
Allot of muslims are leaving your beautfull country hahaha this is a Roman Catholic country !!!, try to learn Spanish an Guarani then you can teach English here, there is a demand ! allso they are planning to build casinos here in Asuncion,
There are no jobs, NO JOBSÂ here realy, and if very low wages , better get a job outside Paraguay, and check if Egypt is not on the list to get a Visa !! , Good luck
Thank you for your replying, but anyway I am not a Muslim (a Christian) and I can adapt very well with a Roman Catholic society, In fact our country was beautiful once before the Islamic conquest , now it is a shame and a dangerous place specially for the Christians.
Thank you again for your helpful information.
your welcome, and I am sorry , I am fleeing Holland because of the same issue ...
Check Thomas if you can get a Visa, its very important to get your paperwork in order , otherwise difficult to get a job !! Wish you the very best in this bautifull country , try it first for a week or two ... Bye, good luck !
Getting jobs here in PY is a real issue for °µÍø½ûÇøs.  Paraguay does not have many jobs available for non native spanish speakers except as "english as a second language" teachers and also school teachers in some of the exclusive private schools (but for those you must have teaching credentials).  If you have the resources like some °µÍø½ûÇøs, you can always open a restraunt, a hotel or some kind of a shop but they are very risky ventures to say the least.  The best option that many use is to work "on line" by the internet for a company outside of Paraguay, so you basically live in Paraguay but earn your living elsewhere. The casino industry is a possibility though, there are a couple of casino's already in Asuncion and a couple I think also in Cde del Este. More are planned for Asuncion which is undergoing a large business and building expansion right now.  So if you have special training or experience and come highly recommended, that may be something to check out. I would try internet searches for Casino websites for Paraguay. Good luck !
Thank you for giving information and ideas and I want to ask you how much would it cost to start a small buisness there like a restrant or buying a taxi or a small shop? I am asking for an avarage or a start point. If you can give me such avarage I would be very thankfull. I am appreciating your help.
I would have no idea about costs of starting a business. I'd suggest go to FaceBook and visit the °µÍø½ûÇøs in Paraguay site.  Many °µÍø½ûÇø and Paraguayan business people are on that site and may be able to give you some information.
