Peak grid demand is during the daytime, most EV owners charge overnight once they arrive home and plug in. In the US and other countries with higher EV adoption there is the option for "Time of Use" rates, where you have a discounted electricity price for the power you use overnight, as that's...

Chances of this going anywhere are slim I'd say. As a citizen of a country requiring a visa to enter Argentina you don't have the privilege of arriving as a tourist and then submitting an application to adjust your status inside the country. You'd need to solicit the proper visa (student...

Has anyone imported their car to Argentina on a temporary basis as a tourist with a foreign passport? I understand there are some agencies that sell insurance for tourists driving around Argentina but I think it's liability only, are there any companies that will sell comprehensive coverage to a...

Note that if you are an Argentine citizen returning from abroad you get a tax free import of personal effects, including a car with prior authorization and approval from the embassy

It would be good for Argentina to decentralize, too much is getting sucked into BA at the expense of the rest of the country

Go to zonaprop and search for listings that are dueno direct (owner direct)

Indeed, if you venture out of the Palermo gringo bubble Argentina is in fact a heavily mestizo society. I'd say it's more akin to "inverted Mexico", where in lieu of Mexico's small European/White Mexican population and much larger indigenous population, Argentina has a larger European descent...

Probably cheaper to buy a roundtrip ticket to Iguazu and buy it in Ciudad del Este. Electronics there are even cheaper than in the US and you can do it as a daytrip

Does online shopping have anything to do with it?

Yes, permanent vs temporary residency has nothing to do with it. There was always a lot of confusion and misinformation that you needed PR for citizenship even before Mileis knew DNU which was never the case. You can read the DNU yourself, just download it and if you don’t speak Spanish...

Won't be long now till Argentina starts issuing oil dividends to its citizens like Saudi Arabia or Qatar 😂 Only half joking, but the newfound wealth from resource exploitation will be a big boost for the country

To be honest I don't see the problem with providing public education for your citizens. The pretense being that this investment in their education will be paid back manyfold by them working higher skilled jobs and contributing back to the state with taxes in the future. I am curious if you...

The universities would do well to start charging foreign students tuition. Foreign students study for free on the backs of the Argentine taxpayer, many of them, perhaps even most, return to their country shortly afterwards to work there without contributing a dime to the country that educated them.

The authoritative source from the Mercosur website

Under the Mercosur agreement residents of the signatories are able to use their Cedula/DNI or similar document to travel from one to another so long as their original nationality doesn't require a visa. So that means if you're an American you could travel from Argentina to Uruguay for example...

Any products that can be produced locally and are truly of a high quality and a reasonable cost wouldn't need tariffs and other forms of protectionism to compete on the free market then. If they are only reasonable when foreign imports cost double or triple what they should cost otherwise due to...

More of the same is precisely what got voted and has been getting voted out since Milei took the reins. They tried import substitution for decades, it hasn't worked and it's not going to work. Argentina is not going to be the country where consumer electronics (TVs, Phones etc) are manufactured...

Which gym is dead? Every smartfit I go to is packed to the gills with queues for every machine

I don't see the problem. Lots of landlords want dollars cash, you can't teleport the money. So either he comes to you to collect cash or you go to him. Sounds like he was too lazy to drive out to you and expected you to go to him

Yes in some provinces they required you to have a DNI, others allowed with just a precaria, in CABA it was possible with only your foreign passport to start the case, you didn't even need to have applied for residency yet
