Law 20.075 amended Article 33 of Law 18.250 and <strong>Decree 45\/023<\/strong> (February 2023) moved these cases to the <strong>National Immigration Office<\/strong> (Direcci\u00f3n Nacional de Migraci\u00f3n). In practice:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>One office:<\/strong> every residency is filed with the Immigration Office, in Montevideo (Mercedes 1004) or at regional offices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A fee:<\/strong> Mercosur and family-link residency, previously free, now costs 557.30 UI. Brazilian and Paraguayan nationals are exempt by reciprocity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A paid re-entry permit<\/strong> (225.60 UI) to travel while your residency is in process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Applications now start <strong>online<\/strong> on gub.uy, with documents uploaded as PDFs; you only go to the Immigration Office for the final appointment.

The extension requires a criminal record certificate and vaccination certificate. Full details in our guide to the <a href=\"https:\/\/globaltax.com.uy\/en\/uruguay-digital-nomad-visa\/\">Uruguay digital nomad visa<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to stay longer, the route is permanent residency, proving that foreign income as means of support.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"insurance\">The health insurance rule that was repealed<\/h2>\n<p>In February 2023, Decree 55\/023 required every foreigner entering Uruguay to have health insurance. Four months later, <strong>Decree 176\/023<\/strong> repealed it. Health insurance is not an entry requirement today, although it is still advisable until you join the Uruguayan health system.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"2026\">Law 20.446: what changes in 2026 for new residents<\/h2>\n<p>Budget Law 20.446, in force since 1 January 2026, <strong>did not change the requirements for legal residency<\/strong>. Its impact is on the taxes of people moving to Uruguay:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Foreign income:<\/strong> on top of interest and dividends, foreign capital gains and foreign rental income are now subject to Uruguayan income tax (IRPF).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tax holiday:<\/strong> people who become tax residents from 2026 still get 11 tax years of exemption, but it is no longer automatic: you must meet and keep a condition, such as more than 183 days a year in Uruguay or a qualifying investment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grandfathering:<\/strong> anyone who elected the regime by 31 December 2025 keeps it for the original term.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Qualified talent:<\/strong> Articles 190 to 192 create a program for professionals living abroad who come to work for innovation or global-services companies, who may opt to pay non-resident income tax (IRNR). The exact scope depends on the implementing regulations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We cover the full regime in <a href=\"https:\/\/globaltax.com.uy\/en\/how-to-obtain-a-tax-residency-in-uruguay\/\">tax residency in Uruguay<\/a>. <strong>Legal residency<\/strong> lets you live in the country; <strong>tax residency<\/strong> determines where you pay taxes.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"id-card\">New ID card design<\/h2>\n<p>In June 2026 the National Civil Identification Office introduced a new polycarbonate ID card with eight new security features. Current cards do not need to be replaced: the new design is issued on first applications and renewals. Foreigners still apply for their ID card with the immigration certificate, even while residency is in process.

See <a href=\"https:\/\/globaltax.com.uy\/en\/uruguay-permanent-vs-temporary-residency\/\">permanent vs. temporary residency<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>No residency-by-investment threshold:<\/strong> investment matters for tax residency, not for legal residency.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Proof of income:<\/strong> the general route still requires a notarial income certificate; Mercosur nationals are exempt.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Losing residency:<\/strong> permanent residency can be cancelled after more than three years of absence (Article 47, Law 18.250).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Citizenship:<\/strong> available after 3 years of residence (with a family established in Uruguay) or 5 years.
