Can I extend my 90-day stay once I'm in Argentina?

Yes, you can extend for another 90 days by visiting immigration offices in Argentina and paying about $100. You can only do this once per entry.

What if my passport expires in 4 months?

Renew it first. Argentina requires 6 months validity from your entry date. They're strict about this rule.

Do I need yellow fever vaccination?

Only if you're coming from a yellow fever endemic area or have transited through one. Most US travelers don't need it.

Can I work remotely on the tourist entry?

Technically no, but enforcement for remote work for foreign companies is minimal. For local employment, you need a work visa.

How to get an Argentina visa for US citizens

US citizens do not need a visa for tourism or business visits to Argentina up to 90 days. You only need a valid passport and will receive a tourist stamp upon arrival. For stays longer than 90 days or other purposes like work or study, you'll need to apply for the appropriate visa at an Argentine consulate.

Check if you actually need a visa. For tourism or business under 90 days, you don't need a visa. Just bring your passport valid for at least 6 months. For work, study, or stays over 90 days, you need a visa.
Gather required documents (if visa needed). Collect passport, completed application form, 2x2 passport photo, proof of financial means, criminal background check, and purpose-specific documents (work contract, school acceptance letter, etc.).
Make an appointment at the consulate. Contact the Argentine consulate in your jurisdiction. New York covers the Northeast, Los Angeles covers the West Coast, and Miami covers the Southeast. Appointments typically take 1-2 weeks to secure.
Submit your application. Attend your appointment with all documents and pay the fee. Tourist visas cost $160, work visas $200, student visas $100. Processing takes 10-15 business days.
Collect your visa. Return to the consulate or arrange for mailed return (add $25 for postal service). Check all visa details before leaving the consulate.
