Do you need a visa for Argentina?

Every year our team of visa specialists support each of our students studying abroad in Argentina to have the proper documents to enter and stay in the country. Let's get started!

A student visa for Argentina is a legal document adhered to one of the inside pages of your passport. The visa serves as approval from the Argentine government for you to legally remain in Argentina for the duration of your study abroad program. The Argentine student visa is a type of "long-stay" visa, meaning you plan to be in Argentina for more than 90 days. 

Depending on your IES Abroad program and citizenship, you may need a student visa to study abroad in Argentina. We’ve outlined citizenship options below to help you learn more about your requirements for legal entry and stay in Argentina.
