I hate the food here. But I'd still prefer it to stay the way it is. There are enough global cities around the world already. Some of us came here yearning for something still reasonably authentic.

I think you are confusing citizenship and residency. My comments were only in respect of residency, but not even residency in this case, instead the precaria phase that comes before Migraciones even issues a temporary residency. My information on that precise matter comes from personal...

To clarify the point you are trying to make here, you mean non-tax and non-Migraciones residents. It's true: a foreigner who is neither a tax resident nor a Migraciones resident but owns assets in Argentina (e.g., an apartment) is up for bienes personales on the value of that asset and, if they...

No. BUT, you have to renew the precaria from time to time. It has an expiry date. If you are outside the country on the expiry date, the process lapses and you have to start again from zero. (This is the detail I mentioned above.)

If you get married during the 90 days and, having got married and having the marriage certificate in your hand apply for the family reunion temporary residency during the 90 days, you can stay longer than the 90 days if the National Migration Directorate take more than the 90 days to process...

OK. I changed my original post after you answered it. Have a look at the above questions and see if you now have the answers you need. I forget to answer the one about the translators. You find your translator here: https://www.traductores.org.ar/ (You will also need the documents...

The information is not very clear. I think you are saying you are a Mercosur resident and you want to enter Argentina and get married here to an Argentine and then obtain Argentine residency. If so, I think your questions are: If I enter Argentina with my Mercosur DNI, is there a time limit...

To renew the Pensionista you must spend a minimum of 183 days (out of 365) in Argentina. You could leave Argentina for 90 days during the 365, still be able to renew the temporary residency at the 365-day mark and avoid becoming a tax resident and thus defer any liability to declare tax in...

The minimum threshold for income tax (known as "ganancias") is adjusted upwatds for inflation regularly. It is currently 2.4 million pesos per month (about US$1800, at today's exchange rate, which also moves around quite a lot of course) for a single person with no dependents. If your pension is...

Suggest keep the number crunching simple: the maximum percentage (of your asset value) payable is 1.25% for 2024, dropping to 0.25 for 2027. Para los períodos siguientes, desde 2024 al 2026, las tablas de alícuotas eliminan el escalón más alto, y las alícuotas quedan comprendidas de esta...

You might find your number is lower now, since the current government has reduced the alicuotas considerably from the 2.25% high of the Fernandez (A) years, and plans to keep reducing them. But, what a future government would do is anybody's guess.

Yet another example of this hilarious phenomenon...

While Argentina moves to soften its wealth tax, suddenly Uruguay (often cited as a better option for people wishing to emigrate to this part of the world) threatens to start taxing wealth held outside the country--probably at least in part targeting the large number of Argentines who changed...

Most people carry around a mental map of the globe that is about 95% ocean. I've mentioned here before that acquaintances in my home country think I live in Mexico. That's because the US looms large in the culture (North America is probably about 3% of the 5% global landmass they see in their...

Is it also a female thing? I have heard many people both here and in Peru long for a trip to Disney, or tell me that they achieved their dream of going there. As far as I can recall, all women.

Like many, she overrates her English skills. She did OK, but was well out of her depth just on language skills alone. Zelensky made the same mistake at the White House.

It's not clear whether Bajo is referring to the failed attempt to apply under the Rentista, or the proposed attempt to apply under the Family Reunification. Or both. Will he clarify? In any event, it will be interesting to see how Pevan's case plays out. I hope he keeps us updated.

If it's a UK criminal record you need (i.e., if you are a UK citizen with a UK passport applying for Argentine residency), you need to do it yourself. You start here with an electronic application: https://acro.police.uk/s/acro-services/police-certificates ACRO will send the certificate to a...

Exactly. The category is important to know. Three rules of thumb: It's good to plan ahead. A renewal is barely any less involved than the initial application, for the Rentista and Pensionista categories if you are in one of those. You have to present all the documents again (updated)...

Returning by bus from Bolivia last week entering at the Aguas Blancas border control nobody was asking the Bolivians to present health insurance.
