FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Residential security companies in Asuncion must hold licensing from the National Police of Paraguay and the Ministry of Interior. Verify licensing documentation before engaging any provider. Companies operating without valid licensing have no legal standing during security incidents. Source: Paraguay private security regulatory framework (2026).

Generator backup for security-critical systems is advisable in Asuncion as a standard precaution. Property selection in the Villa Morra and Carmelitas neighbourhoods provides the best available access to response infrastructure.

Insider risk from domestic staff is a documented pattern in many locations where residential security programmes operate. A structured vetting process using identity document verification, police clearance, and reference checks, combined with a probationary period with restricted access to security-sensitive areas, is the standard mitigation.

The appropriate medevac routing from Asuncion depends on the nature of the medical event and the available regional facilities. The programme includes pre-identified local facilities for initial stabilisation and documented evacuation routing to the nearest internationally accredited hospital. Recommended routing: Hospital Privado Frances or Hospital Santa Clara in Asuncion, or evacuation to Sao Paulo. A medevac provider should be on retainer before the principal or staff move into the property.
