Hi all,
I have been staying here in Argentina since October 2024. I have left twice in that time, once to Chile for five days and once to Uruguay for about the same length of time. No issues coming back in either time - just the occasional question about where I am staying, why I am here, etc.
I am slightly worried about leaving and coming back this time since I am now over the 180 days you are supposedly only allowed to have each calendar year and it would be the third time I am entering the country in the last 12 months. I am concerned that, even if I left for another week to another country, I might have issues getting back in because of this.
To renew, I am planning to do a day trip to Colonia but am concerned about issues I might have on trying to re-enter Argentina. I am lucky enough to have both an Australian and New Zealand passport - so far, I have only entered and re-entered with the NZ one. Would leaving on the NZ one and then re-entering on the same day be a good idea? In my mind, I imagine migraciones wouldn't even know that I am the same person, since the passport is the only identification they have for me each time I enter the country? As long as I leave the country on the same one I entered with (the NZ one) I don't see there being any issues?
Just seeking thoughts/opinions on what the best tactic is here. I am also aware that I can just overstay and pay a fine but I am concerned about potential issues in the future if I do this. I also know there is the option to extend the 90 day visa to a 180 day one, but I worry they would just deny me for this since I have already "extended" it twice already.
Thanks all : )
