Has everything in it been taken?

Not extractableReviewed 11 Oct 2026

Reviewed. Everything readable has been taken; what is left cannot be read as data (for example charts without printed values, or missing pages). We never estimate values from a picture.

What is left

The application fee ('pago por solicitud de categoría migratoria') for temporary permits 'por políticas especiales' in the art. 315 table (p. 72): the cells are misaligned in the printed table, so a B/.250 printed inside the row's label block may belong to that row or to the next one (education); the line level with the label prints no amount. The card fee (B/.50) and the absence of a repatriation deposit are the same on both readings and are recorded.

Notes Original 2008 text only. Later amendments to these articles (e.g. Decreto Ejecutivo 26 of 2 March 2009 and any later changes to the Solvencia amounts) were not checked, so terms from this source have no end date. Full gazette issue stored (89 pages); the decree has a text layer.
