I would assume property and the Bank of Colchón are the biggest stores of wealth in Argentina right? Brining my Kruger Rands here would be a bit of a waste?

Thanks for the advice. We do have some distant family in Arg so it's not a total shock and in reality we are pretty well prepped with extra luggage in the plan as well. BA is not the only horse in the race either.

I am very much an outsider here but my wife and I are moving to BA in July 2025. When comparing the prices from South Africa to BA (for our budgeting purposes) shows that while food will be more expensive, most services and utilities will be cheaper. The crazy thing here at the moment...

Wtf... ok you can scratch the A55 off the list in Argentina. I guess the best bet is to use one of the esim cards to convert a budget phone.

Most newer midrange phones should have esim now. Samsung A35, 55, Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro, 14 Pro, 12T Pro (On discount), Motorola Edge 50 Fusion and a good few others. Specials to be had all around the $150 - $220 mark on some older flagships as well. A35 or older Xiaomi can be best bet...

In my country, you are not allowed to legalise/apostille (Hague convention) a copy of any document. Only original documents that have date stamps and signatures of the person issuing the document. So even an original passport will not be accepted. Perhaps you can get it notarised? But apostille...

Unfortunately, I can't bring the cat in the cabin from ZAR to Brazil and apparently clearance for an animal in Brazil is expensive. So they have to go through Europe. I wonder if I can just book the cat in as checked luggage?

It's a pleasure and thank you for the well-wishes! Hope yours goes well too! I have heard that it's easier to get the permit in Arg but takes a little longer, but it's cheaper. I don't think you will be needing all the documents I did but it's best to be prepared. Furthermore, I just had a...

I am married to an Argentinian and recently got the requirements from an Arg embassy (outside the USA) for my permanent residence before we move permanently. I need to give: an apostilled full birth certificate, apostilled full marriage certificate, apostilled full criminal police certificate...

Hi there, Not sure if this is the right place. My Argentinian wife and I are permanently moving to BA in July and we want to bring our cat. Because of where we are coming from and connecting flights etc. she will be travelling as cargo and arriving as cargo at EZE. I was wondering if anyone has...
