Travellers from Canada, the USA, Australia, New Zealand and several Western European countries, will not need visas to visit this beautiful country.
If you are from a country that does need a visa, it is advisable to get a free tourist card when you arrive in Argentina. This card is valid for 90 days and can be renewed for another 90 days if it times out.
These tourist cards are issued by immigration officers only at some of the main border crossings, like on ferries, at airports and at hydrofoils between Uruguay and Buenos Aires. Even if you lose your card, do not worry because you will be supplied with a fresh tourist card immediately at any of the exit points.
Please note that we advise checking with your local embassy for the most up to date information prior to your travels.
