How it actually works
No visa required. Aussie passport holders get a 90-day stamp on arrival. No forms to fill, just present passport at immigration.
Watch for
- •Argentina removed its arrival 'reciprocity fee' for Aussies in 2017 — anyone telling you to pay one online is scamming.
- •Carry the small slip immigration gives you on entry. Hotels sometimes ask for it.
Staying longer
Yes — extend another 90 days at any Migraciones office (~A$50). Or do a 'visa run' across the border to Uruguay/Chile and back.
