I m in Asuncion right now.
I entered by Clorinda. I confirm that transit formalities are now compulsary at borders. I was given 3 month on special requests.
I m in a process of nationalizing the motorcycle here, so that i dont have to worry about exit dates any more in Mercosur countries. The import taxes are 35% of the estimated value of the vehicule.
I m staying in a german BnB (Wiebe und Schmidt) not far from the bridge that leads to Argentina, in Mariano Alonzo. I m in heaven. Those people are really helpfull, experts in papers processing, bikers and excellent cooks. I strongly recommend them if you plan a stop over in Asuncion.
I might also apply for a Paraguayan residency. The process seems fairly easy and inexpensive for a permanent card since the country is willing to attract european immigration.

get motorcycle in paraguay
Hi guys im going to spend more than 7 months in South America.
I'd like to buy a motorcycle like 125cc in Assuncion,Paraguay and than travel around South America (i have already done this kind of trip in Asia). My idea is to buy a motorcycle in Paraguay and than cross Argentina-Chile-Perù-Bolivia-Colombia and if i'll still have time, energy and money i'd like get Mexico too.
I have few question:
What kind of documents of the motorcycle do I need before leaving the country(Paraguay)?
Can i (Once bought the bike in Assuncion and obtained the necessary documentation) cross the borders of other countries without any problems?
and could i sell the motorcycle once in Colombia, being it registered in Paraguay? or should be better sell it in Mexico?
