Argentina Visas & Entry Requirements
A valid passport is required for U.S. citizens to enter Argentina.
U.S. citizens do not need a visa for visits of up to 90 days for
tourism and business. U.S. citizens who arrive in Argentina with
expired or damaged passports may be refused entry and returned to
the United States at their own expense. The U.S. Embassy cannot
provide guarantees on behalf of travelers in such situations, and
therefore encourages U.S. citizens to ensure their travel documents
are valid and in good condition prior to departure from the United
States. Different rules apply to U.S. citizens who also have Argentine
nationality, depending on their dates of U.S. naturalization. For
more information, check the Argentine Ministry of the Interior web
site at www.mininterior.gov.ar/migraciones/. Most dual nationals
are permitted 60-day visits. Dual nationals who stay beyond their
permitted time are required to depart on an Argentine passport.
The application process for an Argentine passport is lengthy,
and the U.S. Embassy is not able to provide assistance in obtaining
Argentine passports or other local identity documents. Children
under 21 years of age who reside in Argentina, regardless of nationality,
are required to present a notarized document that certifies both
parents' permission for the child's departure from Argentina when
the child is traveling alone, with only one parent, or in someone
else's custody (click on the "international child abduction"
link below for more information). An airport tax is collected upon
departure, payable in dollars or Argentine pesos.
American citizens wishing to enter Brazil from Argentina are required
to obtain a visa in advance from the Brazilian Embassy or consulate
nearest to the traveler's place of residence. The U.S. Embassy in
Buenos Aires cannot assist travelers to obtain Brazilian visas.
