The Banco Central del Paraguay (BCP) began refunding Ueno Bank depositors 3 days after ordering the bank’s resolution. The decision dates from November 2, 2026, and payment began on November 5. The money has not reached everyone yet: as of November 6, public information covers only a first group.
From the resolution to the first payment
| Date | What happened | Days since the resolution |

The count uses calendar days, which here match business days, Monday to Thursday. Counted from the announcement on November 3, it was 2 days.
Who was refunded first
According to the Paraguayan press, the first group is made up of people who meet all three conditions at once:
- deposits of up to ₲ 10,000,000;
- no debts with Ueno;
- an enabled account at another bank or finance company in Paraguay.
People in this group receive their full deposits. The sources we consulted do not report how many people have been paid or the total amount disbursed.
Who is still waiting
All other depositors are waiting, and the BCP said it will announce the next groups gradually. As of November 6, the sources we consulted give no date for those groups. This includes people with larger balances, debts with Ueno, or no account at another institution.
The advance under Law 7745 is capped at 40 minimum wages, ₲ 121,760,000 per depositor, minus overdue debts to the bank. The full guarantee goes up to 75 minimum wages, ₲ 228,300,000. These are limits, not the amount paid to each person now. The sources also do not explain how the five-business-day period applies to the next groups.
What to do now
- Use official channels only: type bcp.gov.py/fgd-pagos into your browser.
- Do not pay anyone: be wary of messages promising to speed up the next payment. Do not share passwords, PINs, or codes.
- Wait for the channel on amounts: according to the press, questions about the assigned amount will open after the payment period ends.
