Paraguayan Uruguayans are people born in Paraguay who live in Uruguay.
There are lots of Paraguayan-born persons living in Uruguay, for a number of reasons. Both countries share the Spanish language; their historical origins are common (part of the Viceroyalty of the River Plate, Spanish Empire); both countries are members of MERCOSUR, there is no need for special migration documents, and circulation is relatively easy. Uruguay is a very small, quiet country, with wide beaches on the Atlantic Ocean, so many well-off Paraguayans choose Uruguay as their usual holiday destination, some of them even as permanent residence. Other Paraguayans of a lower social condition come to Uruguay in search of job opportunities; as of 2013, there are some 150 Paraguayan citizens registered in the Uruguayan social security.[1]
Paraguayan residents in Uruguay have their own social and cultural association.[2]
