    Got shouted at on first border hop at the Buquebus terminal in BA

    If you are a tax resident which isnt hard to become with any visa then a foreign company cannot employ you to work here remotely directly anymore. They need to establish a domestic entity. So most employers wouldn't want to unknowingly be put in a situation of violating those requirements in a...

    Got shouted at on first border hop at the Buquebus terminal in BA

    I got a verbal warning for speeding. It doesn't give any credibility to the existence of a grey area. It is low on the priority list but I don't think there is much grey once they don't see you as a tourist anymore. It is either black or white and everything in the white with a remote...

    I have one as well if anyone wants it. They say they can't be transfered but it is worth a try.

    About the Tractorazo

    Can you explain the mechanism/ability to import at the official rate and deduct 56% tax? I always hear them complaining about cashing out at the official and export tariffs but didn't realize there is a benefit on the other end. Maybe I shouldn't be so sympathetic.

    Western Union money transfer

    I'm not sure 100% sure but I always thought it was on the spread with the CCL but they give the same rate in either direction. If you send 21010 ARS to the USA you get $100 exactly but the no fee promo doesn't work in that direction so fees on the opposite side that might be how they are able...

    Expat Tax Advice - Looking For Accountant

    This is basically what my Argentine accountant told me. I have earnings, investments, and real estate abroad. Unless I could divest of most of them it wasn't feasable. The obligations were grim.

    Looking to try some hunting here

    What big game is here to hunt? Puma and Stag? I never saw a much big game in the wild but had Puma Asado on the Campo once. Are crossbows and bows regulated? That could be a better alternative.

    IV Fluids

    Is self-administration a possibility? I was allowed to self-administer when I had one prescribed for a period of time. This was within the USA. They could direct me how to do it but I wasn't to allow anyone else that wasn't licensed. So couldn't have my spouse or a friend do it. Probably...

    CCL is $213-$214 so it might pay to wait.

    When was the last time Argentina was expensive?

    It might go 1:1 but they will retire the current currency. Like mil pesos will buy 1 of the new 1 to 1 peso. And the process will begin again.

    When was the last time Argentina was expensive?

    Yes. I did some unskilled but hard labor in the black for around $5 usd/hr in 2015. The cost of things at the blue were probably equaivalent as if you used the official now.

    Western Union money transfer

    They are in a difficult business. I think they deal with more scams and nefarious transactions than any traditional financial institution. Has to be why you see rejected transactions and limits all over the place. Probably flagged transactions on the fraud department that customer service has...

    Buying a car or bike in a neighbor country and driving to Argentina?

    Pickup trucks are exempt from the additional luxury tax since they are work vehicles. If a Hilux or Ranger Raptor floats your boat. Resale on them is even better.

    Western Union money transfer

    Was that for debit card transactions only? I think that is just the ID verification. I read of a few having to verify their banking credentials and the source of funds with Western Union. That must be an anti money laundering/tax evasion thing.

    Western Union money transfer

    If the spread gets big enough in the opposite direction could we start changing the pesos bought with blue dollars and western union them back to our US bank accounts? DIGITAL0FEE won't work sending ARS to Dollar but WU will sometimes give out one time use codes if you have a service problem...
