People who need Visa
All people who come to Argentina need a visa, except in the cases specify above.
Argentina is a bureaucratic country where the approval of applications can take long time; therefore it is advisable to start doing it some time in advance.
The documents that are often needed when applying are:
- Passport with a validity of at least 1 year after the visa is issued.
- Four standard-size passport photos.
- Certified birth certificate in an international form.
- Statement of good conduct. This will normally be a transcript of your criminal record from your national police (obviously, they will be looking for a transcript that does not contain any offences on it).
- Medical statement (this form is issued by the consulate).
- Certified declaration of not having any criminal antecedents (signed in presence of consul).
- Payment of the application fee.
