Bolivia residency
Temporary residency, permanent residency, and the Bolivian documents that hold the whole thing together. We walk you through what applies to your situation, in the order it actually happens.

Bolivia has a handful of routes. Most people end up on one of these three.
The one year visa most people start on. It gets you a cédula, a bank account, and a legal footing to live and work here while the longer term status is prepared.
The next step once temporary residency has run its course. Same file, more history behind it, and a different set of checkpoints with Migración.
Spouses, children, and dependents have their own track and their own document list. Handled alongside the principal applicant so the files do not drift apart.
We go through your situation, what you want out of Bolivia, and which pathway fits.
You get the exact list for your route, including what needs apostilling and where.
The lawyer team files with Migración while you handle your side of the paperwork.
Once residency is granted, you register locally and collect your cédula.
Some steps can be prepared from abroad, some cannot. We tell you which is which on the call so you are not booking flights for something that could have been done at home.
Timelines move with Migración and with how fast your documents come back. Anyone quoting a single fixed number for every applicant is guessing. We give you the realistic range for your file.
The work based route is the usual answer for people who want to earn locally. We go through what that looks like for your case rather than generalising.
Dependents are filed alongside the principal applicant. Same lawyer team, same timeline where possible, so nobody is left waiting on a separate track.
Tell us where you are starting from and we will point you at the right one.
