    Reciprocity fee and permanent residents

    Argentines lost the visa waiver when the country went bust back in 2001 and many would have gone to the States or Europe and just vanished into the black economys. I accept that 100%. But the States and Europe had work back then. The difference is neither the States or Europe has work now. Many...

    Reciprocity fee and permanent residents

    And for my 100th post on BA expats. Having a DNI should prove that you are a resident not a tourist and should there fore exempt you from this charge. But this is Argentina so it may not be the case,i stand corrected.

And she said yes ,right before you get your passport stamped they have a cabin of some kind. So it apears we have...

    Argentine Men Are All...

    This should be a great thread because most expat women i know think Argentine men are imature and machismo and expect their women to eat lettice and drink water and they completly lose the plot when a woman orders a great big steak and a bottle of wine (or god forbid a pint of beer) And the fact...
