    Cruise Ship from Africa Allowed to Dock in BA by Mistake

    Hmmm ... who still believes what the government says here? They lie when they open their mouth. Why is that person and those who had prolonged contact still in quarantine when the tests were all negative? Something is fishy ...

    That is great news! The stout from Argentinian brands has been to sweet for my taste.

    Taxes for foreigners

    That is the thing. If you get paid in crypto then the "official" rate at all the argentinian exchanges is very close to the "dolar MEP" (if you do the math calculating crypto value to dollar value to peso value). So, pretty good. Is that still the case for services? AFIP's website says the 5%...

    Western Union money transfer

    The downside with Brubank (from my past experience) is that you cannot just withdraw the dollars in cash. With a regular bank like BBVA you can just go to a nearby the branch and withdraw the dollars in cash from your USD caja de ahorro. Also, Brubank does not offer credit cards which can be...

    Taxes for foreigners

    Interesting article. And what a #$&@*! country where you can go to jail for 4 years when exchanging your earned dollars at the "real" exchange rate (e.g. via dólar MEP). I found the following paragraph interesting: "Si nos pagan con un criptoactivo, su liquidación debe transferirse dentro de...

    Exchanging money while visiting Buenos Aires

    I have never had an issue with exchanging dollars in the "black" market over the years. 98 vs 184 pesos makes a huge difference. Plus huge ATM fees for foreign cards.

    Covid Vaccination Argentina

    That was my understanding of the new rule. That masks are still required outside in situations with crowds or where distancing is not possible. Not a general no-more-masks-outside rule.

    Covid Vaccination Argentina

    I feel there is much misinformation. It is not that masks are no longer required. And I agree with you that all those new measures are the result of the election disaster for the government. But ... if I walk alone or with people from my household outside (e.g. in a park) a mask makes no sense...
