For an individual tax resident in Paraguay, crypto gains from trading on foreign platforms and with non‑resident counterparties are not taxed under the territorial system, but gains may be taxed if the transaction is considered Paraguayan‑source (e.g. via local intermediaries, banks, or resident clients).
“Paraguay does not have specific cryptocurrency tax legislation. Under the territorial system, crypto gains from foreign platforms would be exempt as they are considered foreign‑source income and therefore not subject to Paraguayan income tax, provided there is no nexus with the Paraguayan territory.” — Dirección Nacional de Ingresos Tributarios (DNIT) – via summary of Law 6380/2019 and territoriality rules
