Every figure here is as argentina.gob.ar publishes it, checked 18 August 2026. Where a number is our own arithmetic rather than a printed figure, the row says so.
- Status
- Open
- Visa
- Residencia transitoria — Nómada Digital
- Initial stay
- 6 months
- Renewal
- Granted for up to 180 days and extendable for an equal period — roughly 12 months in total. The official page sets no cap on the number of extensions.
- Who qualifies
- Open only to nationals of countries that do NOT need a tourist visa for Argentina, who provide services remotely by digital or telecommunications means to people or companies abroad. Requires a valid passport, an Argentine criminal-record certificate for over-16s, proof of address, regular entry, a signed application setting out the work activity, a short CV, and proof of the remote work with at least one professional reference.
- Where to apply
- Two live official routes: an in-country application through Migraciones (email for Buenos Aires applicants, local office elsewhere; no agent needed), or the online pre-entry electronic procedure for digital nomads, which grants 180 days with the outcome notified by email.

What to know before you apply
Still open — both official pages were live on 18 August 2026 with no suspension or replacement notice. Correction: the legal basis Migraciones cites is Ley 25.871 as regulated by Decreto 616/2010 and Disposición DNM 758/2022, not Disposición 1/2022. Neither official page carries a last-updated date, so the recency of the content itself cannot be confirmed.
What it means for your tax days
A visa is permission to stay; tax residency follows the days you actually spend. Check Argentina's tax authority for the day test that applies to you — and count the days either way.
