Tacuary qualified for the Copa Libertadores tournament twice (in 2005 and 2007) and the Copa Sudamericana three times (in 2007, 2012 and 2023). In 2013 it returned to the Paraguayan Segunda División.

In the 2021 season of Paraguay's División Intermedia, Tacuary finished 3rd and was promoted to the Primera División.
