Flash rainstorms create severe urban flash-flooding currents ('raudales') on access roads around Asunción and Luque. Elevated ground clearance is necessary to navigate unpaved detours, sudden deep potholes, and aggressive speed bumps ('lomadas').

Essential Driver FAQs

Is an International Driving Permit (IDP) mandatory to rent a car at Asunción Silvio Pettirossi Airport?

Yes. Non-Mercosur driver's license holders must carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside their valid national driver's license. The Patrulla Caminera frequently asks foreign drivers for their IDP at highway checkpoints.

Can I drive my rental car from Asunción Airport into Argentina or Brazil?

Only if pre-arranged. Rental agencies must issue a notarized authorization permit (Carta Poder) and Mercosur cross-border liability insurance at least 48 to 72 hours before pickup. Additional cross-border fees apply ($100-$200 USD).

How do I pay for highway tolls when leaving Asunción Airport?

Tolls in Paraguay are paid at physical barrier booths. While contactless payments are being expanded, you must always carry Paraguayan Guaraní (PYG) in cash, as card machines regularly experience connectivity failures.

Are daytime headlights mandatory when driving in Asunción and surrounding areas?

Yes. Paraguayan traffic law mandates that low-beam headlights (luces bajas) must be switched on at all times on national highways and access corridors, even in broad daylight. Failure to comply leads to on-the-spot fines by the Patrulla Caminera.

What is the best fuel station to use before returning a rental car to Asunción Airport?

The Shell and Petrobras service stations along Autopista Silvio Pettirossi, located roughly 2.5 km southwest of the terminal (towards Asunción), are the most convenient locations to refill before entering the airport return compound.

What should I do if caught in a sudden rainstorm (raudal) in Asunción?

Avoid entering flooded streets or dips. Urban flash-flooding currents ('raudales') can sweep cars away within minutes. Pull over on elevated ground away from curbs and wait until the torrential runoff subsides.
