Visa-free for 90 days

Argentina's National Directorate of Migrations publishes a visa-regime table showing, nationality by nationality, who needs a visa, and says tourists are admitted for up to three months, extendable for another similar period. Some nationals who need a tourist visa can instead apply for an electronic travel authorisation (AVE) if they hold a valid US visa in a listed category or — for nationals of countries exempt from US visas — a current ESTA or an entry into the US in the previous two years.

  6. Return or onward ticket

    Argentina's Foreign Ministry lists a round-trip ticket reservation among the documents required for a consular tourist visa application. No official Argentine source we could read states an onward-ticket requirement for other travellers; Canada's travel advice says customs officials may ask you to show a return or onward ticket and proof of sufficient funds to cover your stay.

  7. Proof of funds

    Argentina's Foreign Ministry lists proof of economic solvency (for example recent pay slips, a credit card statement or a bank statement) among the documents required for a consular tourist visa application. No official source we could read states an amount. Canada's travel advice says customs officials may ask for proof of sufficient funds to cover your stay.

  8. Vaccinations

    WHO's list of countries requiring proof of yellow fever vaccination shows no such requirement for Argentina. Argentina's Ministry of Health lists Formosa, Misiones, Corrientes and parts of Jujuy, Salta and Chaco as areas with risk of yellow fever circulation, recommends vaccination for people travelling to areas with proven transmission, and says the vaccine must be given at least ten days before arrival.
