Argentina Digital Nomad Visa

Digital Nomad Visa

Argentina’s digital nomad visa is notable for having no fixed minimum-income figure — the focus is on proving genuine, consistent remote income from abroad. Buenos Aires offers world-class food and culture at a relatively low cost.

Income requirement

No fixed minimum threshold — you must prove consistent, verifiable remote income from foreign sources.

How long it lasts

Up to 180 days, renewable once for another 180 days (about a year in total).

Processing time

Typically a few weeks.

Cost

A modest application fee (varies; broadly in the $100–200 range).

Almost every nomad visa needs health insurance

Most applications require proof of valid medical cover for your whole stay. Nomad-friendly travel insurance is the simplest way to meet it.
