Visa proceedings

Citizens of many countries can enter Argentina without a visa. However, citizens of some countries do need a visa to enter Argentina.
You can check the official list of countries requiring a visa here: https://www.migraciones.gob.ar/accesible/indexdnm.php?visas

Important exception
Citizens of India and China who hold a valid United States visa or a valid U.S. Green Card at the time of entry to Argentina do not need a visa.


If your country requires a visa

If your nationality is on the list of countries that require a visa, you should start the process as early as possible.

If you are traveling to Argentina only to attend the conference and will stay in the country for less than 90 days, you should apply for a tourist visa.

The visa process consists of four steps and ends with an appointment at your local Argentine Embassy or Consulate. Please begin Step 1 as soon as possible.


Step 1: Send your information

Send an email to buenosairesconference@memorystudiesassociation.org

Step 2: Letter of invitation

Universidad Torcuato Di Tella will send a letter of invitation on your behalf to the indicated Argentine Embassy or Consulate.
