Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for the entire time you plan to be in Argentina. No minimum validity beyond your stay is required by Argentine law, but airlines may enforce a 6-month rule — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Argentina | Immigration officers routinely ask for a confirmed onward ticket. A return flight to Slovenia or a ticket to a third country works. If you don't have one, you may be denied boarding or entry. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have a printed or digital hotel reservation, Airbnb confirmation, or a letter from your host with their address and contact details. Officers rarely ask, but it helps if they do. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Carry a bank statement, credit card, or cash equivalent to roughly 50 USD per day. Immigration may ask for proof of funds, especially if you arrive without a return ticket. | Recommended |
No visa needed, but don't skip the basics
You don't need a visa, but immigration can still deny entry if you can't show a return ticket or your passport is too close to expiry. Have those ready.
Overstaying is expensive
Overstaying even a day can trigger fines and a re-entry ban. Set a reminder to leave before day 90.
What happens at the border

Arrival at Ezeiza or Aeroparque
After landing in Buenos Aires (EZE or AEP), follow signs to 'Migraciones' (Immigration). Join the 'Extranjeros' line. Have your passport and return ticket ready. The officer will stamp you in for up to 90 days. No forms to fill.

Customs and baggage claim
After immigration, collect your bags, then walk through the green 'nothing to declare' channel if you have nothing to declare. Random checks happen.

Exit Argentina
At departure, go through security and then immigration. They'll stamp you out. No exit tax or extra paperwork.

Frequently asked questions
No. The visa-free stay is not extendable. You must leave after 90 days. Overstaying can result in fines and a ban. If you want to stay longer, you'd need to apply for a proper visa before travel.
No. There is no arrival declaration required for Slovenian passport holders. Just show up with your passport and return ticket.
You will likely be denied boarding by the airline or refused entry by Argentine immigration. Renew your passport before you travel.
Technically yes, but immigration may ask for proof of onward travel. It's safer to have a return or onward ticket booked. If you don't have one, you might be asked to buy one on the spot.
No, it's not mandatory for entry. But it's strongly recommended. Medical costs in Argentina can be high, and insurance covers hospital stays, cancellations, and lost luggage.
You'll face a fine (around 300-500 ARS per day overstayed, but can be higher) and a possible re-entry ban. Always leave on time.
Officially, no. The visa-free entry is for tourism only. Remote work is a grey area — many do it, but technically you're not supposed to earn income while in the country. If asked, say you're a tourist.
