    Entering and leaving argentina with different passports

    as i mentioned I have done that, but be aware in your scenario, since you originally enter Argentina with your passport A, that is the one they have on file and registered to your name and print and photo. as you are legally a citizen of both A and B they can't deny you. you will have however...

    Entering and leaving argentina with different passports

    you usually have to enter and leave with same document. if you don't they usually stop you and make you show your original document. you can however leave argentina and enter brazil (for example) with your second one. i did that from Iguazu as i needed a visa on my canadian passport to enter...

    Hi, I need some advice on buying property please

    can you confirm this? my understanding is that there is NO tax if you, as a foreign resident, want to donate money to your sister who is a resident of argentina. likewise, her justification for these funds is "they were donated" and then she needs to show the donation letter with all of its...

    Dog Parks in BA?

    in palermo soho there is one at Armenia y costa rica (maybe at malabia) there is also one near the US embassy at libertador and sarmiento. they are very small and may require a quick "check for anything weird" before you let your dog in. most people do just let heir dogs go off leash.

    Is anyone going to Colonia anytime soon?

    i agree with Eclair. don't go and come back. it just puts you on the radar and fills your passport with stamps. just pay when you leave and you will be fine. you can search previous threads that say the same thing. good luck.

    The Gold Standard?

    a quote from ex Fed chairman Alan Greenspan in 1966 speech, before he flip-flopped: still interesting today. "In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value. If there were, the government would have to...

    Crazy Canadian on the run.

    i read he wrote some blog a while back on the 'best way to evade the authorities' if you ever needed to disappear. this included how to change your identity, get new documents, where to have plastic surgery done for cash, how to travel in disguise etc. but then the sicko kept using his canadian...

    Going to the movies in Argentina

    back home I used to see two movies in theatres a week. i'm lucky if i see two a year in BA. I actually prefer the reserved seating here, but truth is, i seem to end up seeing them online, or on Apple TV before they even get released here. and besides, i think I went for the popcorn as much as...
