FYI for anybody else who tries to use this system - I have confirmed that only a local Argentinian debit/credit card can be used to make a payment.

Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to pay a tramite (in this case, a passport) in Mi Argentina with a foreign debit/credit card? The payment page asks for all of the usual details but also a "numero de documento" which I would assume means a DNI (which I don't have). I have entered my...

Hi folks, Just wondering if anyone would know where one would go to get a "permiso" for our child to travel with one parent for a few days from Argentina to Bolivia... Let me initially give you some details: - I live in Spain (have permanent residency / NIE etc.) - I do not have any...

Thanks El Manolo. Let me follow up with the Consulate again.

@El manolo - One final thing that I want to clarify (apologies if it appears that I am asking the same questions again). There is nothing that I can do in terms of Argentinian family reunification/permanent residency/DNI etc. while I am in Spain? I can only start the process when I am in...

Thanks El Manolo. So, I should apply for Argentinian permanent residency when I am physically on the ground there. Conversely, I apply for my wife's permanent residency from here in Spain. I have read the small print - I first need to physically present the required documents here. Thereafter...

So, I am trying to begin the process of getting permanent residency. The Argentine Consulate here in Spain has told me to apply for it via the DNM website. This appears to be the link: https://www.argentina.gob.ar/servicio/radicaciones-no-mercosur-residencia-permanente Has anyone applied for...

Hi folks, Just wondering what, if anything, is required to drive a family member's car here in Argentina? I have a Spanish driving license. Can I simply drive the car with the person's consent or is some kind of "permiso" required? Thanks.

No, I always recharge via the app with my credit card.

I did not have this issue with either of my Claro SIMs. I just bought them in one of their stores, loaded them up in a kiosco and then signed up via the Claro app/website so that I could monitor balances/recharge from there...

There's something a bit odd about the Claro app/website in that it will often prevent you from buying data packs - it will state "Saldo insuficiente para activar Packs. Hacé clic acá y recargá!". So, I would then go and recharge. However, no recharge amount (even the max. of 4000 pesos) would...

Noted, Steve, thanks.

Thanks, El manolo. Based on your experience, I think that I might apply for it at the Argentinian Embassy in Madrid.

Yep, Steve, that is my ballpark plan at the moment...

Wow, you folks are a minefield of information! Thanks a million to everyone! 👍👊👏

I'll add a bit more context. I work in Spain (I'm from Ireland) and only come in/out of Argentina on the 90 day tourist visa at the moment. However, I'm guessing that I would have to spend an extended, unbroken period here before I could even begin to apply for a DNI? But how do I do that if I...

Thanks a lot, El manolo 👍

Hi folks, Just wondering does the status of a parent (foreigner) change when their child is born in Argentina? Is the parent then able to get a DNI, do something regarding citizenship etc.? Or are you still considered a 90 day tourist? The other parent (wife) is an Argentinian citizen. Thanks.

Hi, Just wondering what are the consequences, if any, of carrying 20,000 dollars in cash into Argentina? I assume the sensible approach is to officially declare it and not take any chances with a non declaration? What actually happens when you declare it? Are questions asked regarding the...
