What documents does Itauguá ask for to approve a larger building?

The municipality's 2025 list for major works asks for four copies of architectural plans including a sewage drainage plan, quantity and cost sheets signed by an architect or engineer, formwork drawings for concrete slabs, and a fire prevention system certified by the volunteer fire brigade. It also asks for the professional's MOPC registration and license, a notarized copy of the title, proof that property tax is paid and copies of the owners' Paraguayan ID cards. Foreign owners without a Paraguayan cédula should ask how the municipality handles their case before filing.

How do I get water and electricity connected?

Itauguá's Catastro y Desarrollo Urbano office issues an occupancy certificate (certificado de ocupación) used for connections with the local junta de saneamiento for water and with ANDE for electricity. The 2025 requirements list asks for proof of ownership, photos of the house, the location, two witnesses and a fee of Gs. 25,000.

Can I develop a gated community or subdivide land in Itauguá?

Yes, through the Dirección de Catastro y Desarrollo Urbano, which reviews applications for barrios cerrados, subdivisions and lot mergers. The file must include a notarized copy of the title, an updated ownership report from the Dirección General de Registros Públicos, and five copies of a georeferenced plan signed by a professional licensed by the municipality; larger subdivisions also need an environmental impact declaration and a land-use location certificate.

Find Your Location

Itauguá Today

Itauguá lies about 30 km from Asunción on Ruta PY02, and according to the municipality its district reaches Lake Ypacaraí and Areguá to the north. Ley 4591/12 declared it the Capital del Ñandutí, after the local lace, and its commercial strip runs along the highway. It hosts the Hospital Nacional, opened on 20 November 1990, which ABC Color has described as the most important facility in the Health Ministry's network.

Building in Itauguá: What to Know

The municipality publishes separate requirement lists for minor works and major works (obras mayores), and major works require a fire prevention system certified by the Cuerpo de Bomberos Voluntarios del Paraguay and a sewage drainage plan. Water in parts of the district comes from juntas de saneamiento (local water boards), and the municipality issues an occupancy certificate used to request water from the junta and power from ANDE. Lake Ypacaraí and its adjacent wetlands are protected under Ley 5256/2014, which matters for lots near the shore.

Why Investors Build in Itauguá

The city's position on Ruta PY02 and the regional role of the Hospital Nacional anchor commercial activity. The municipality has a formal procedure for approving gated communities (barrios cerrados) and land subdivisions, which shows that kind of development is planned for. No source found describes foreign buyers in Itauguá specifically.

Building Permits

In Itauguá, building plans are approved by: Municipalidad de Itauguá, Obras, Servicios y Proyectos (building plans); Dirección de Catastro y Desarrollo Urbano (subdivisions and barrios cerrados). We prepare and file the documents for you.
