According to Kenny Yuen, general coordinator of the sexta-feira Negra: “This year's Black Friday should be broad. We want to add a network of hotels, restaurants, bars and nightclubs in Paraguay. We are going to take advantage of and publicize the tourist destination, in addition to leveraging sales at the border”

Is it worth buying in Paraguay?

Crossing the border to shop in Paraguay is one of the most common tours for those visiting Foz do Iguaçu.

Known for offering much lower prices than those practiced in Brazil and, therefore, this activity was considered unmissable for several decades. So imagine black friday in Paraguay!

Documents for crossing the border

To cross the Friendship Bridge it is necessary that all people are carrying their RG or passport in hand. Children need to be accompanied by their parents, but if one of them is not with them or they are with someone responsible, a document with a notarized signature must be presented, authorizing the entry of the minor into the neighboring country. 

Exchange money or have an international card

In addition to documentation, the best way to shop in Paraguay is to exchange money and buy goods in dollars. However, practically all stores also accept real and guarani.

Most locations also accept international credit cards and some debit cards, but be aware: for card payments, an IOF fee is charged on transactions and, in some cases, a store fee. 

It is important to be aware, each tourist can spend up to 500 dollars in 30 days! If the quota is exceeded, it is necessary to pay a tax of 50% on the excess amount at customs. The quota is individual and renewed every month.
