Questions about residency in Ecuador

Sorry, but you have heard wrong. This used to be the case, but now you are not permitted to stay longer than 90 days unless you have a 6 month permit which you need to get from the Ecuadorian embassy or consulate before you enter the country.

They closed this loophole last year.

Thank you, this is the first time I've heard this. Is there a limit on how many times you are allowed to visit on just your passport? Can you visit more than one time a year or is it you can only visit once, period?

Do you know anything about my other questions?

My understanding is that you are allowed a total of 90 days on just your passport. Presumably this could be three 30day visits in a 12 month period dated from your first visit.

Hopefully someone who has hard info will reply in fuller detail.

I have put an Ecuadorian Helpfull Fact sheet together that can answer many question

I would be most interested in reading your Ecuadorian fact sheet as my husband and I are planning to retire there sometime later this year.  We have our tickets booked to visit in July to check it all out.

I would be interested in the guide as well.  Kathleen Petticord just wants to sell info.
