Overcoming the challenges of a landlocked country. We provide expert Sea + River transshipment via Montevideo or Buenos Aires directly to Asunción (Villeta, Terport), alongside fast Air Freight and DNA Customs clearance.
Paraguay is landlocked, meaning standard sea freight isn't enough. We expertly coordinate the transfer from ocean vessels to river barges or trucks in Uruguay/Argentina for final delivery.
Whether your cargo is destined for Villeta, Terport, or Caacupemi, we ensure priority handling upon arrival at Paraguay's main inland river ports.
Navigating DNA (Dirección Nacional de Aduanas) and the SOFIA system can be complex. Our local agents ensure all documentation is flawless before the cargo arrives.
Select the most efficient transport mode depending on your volume, budget, and urgency.
The most common method. Goods are shipped from Vietnam to Montevideo (MVD) or Buenos Aires (BUE), then loaded onto river barges traveling up the Paraná/Paraguay rivers to Asunción.
When time is of the essence. We bypass the long river transit by flying your urgent cargo directly into Silvio Pettirossi International Airport (ASU) in Asunción.
An alternative to river barges, especially when river levels are low. Cargo arrives in Paranaguá (Brazil) or Montevideo and is securely trucked in-bond to Paraguay.
Our Despachantes de Aduana (customs brokers) manage the entry via DNA's SOFIA system, ensuring accurate duty payment and rapid release at Terport or Villeta.
As Paraguay is landlocked, we offer multimodal sea freight solutions (ocean + river barge via transshipment hubs) and direct air freight to Asuncion.

Goods arrive at Villeta or Terport. We manage the DNA customs clearance and arrange final delivery to your warehouse.
Everything you need to know about shipping from Vietnam to Paraguay.
Because Paraguay does not have a coastline, we use a multimodal transport strategy. Your cargo is shipped by large ocean vessel from Vietnam to a major transit port like Montevideo (Uruguay) or Buenos Aires (Argentina). From there, the container is transshipped onto smaller river barges that travel up the Paraná and Paraguay rivers directly to inland ports in Asunción.
