In prior posts, we have already covered Uruguay’s main attractives and cities, as well as its tax and business advantages.
Today, we’ll get to the practical side of how to move there, open a bank account and eventually get citizenship.Â
Uruguay, like most of Latin America, is welcoming of immigrants and has low barriers to residency.
Residency in Uruguay 🇺🇾
If you are:
A national from MERCOSUR member and associate states (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Venezuela, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana and Suriname)
Or a relative of Uruguayans (parents, siblings, spouses and legally recognized cohabitants)
Then you can can apply for permanent residency directly at the National Direction of Migration.
All that is needed is a police record, a vaccination card and a birth certificate.
