Do I need a visa for Argentina from Iran?

Discover visa requirements for your trip

In short

Iranian nationals must obtain a tourist visa before travelling to Argentina; the application goes through Argentina's official electronic portal where their nationality is eligible, otherwise through the consulate.

For a tourist stay in Argentina, holders of an Iranian passport must hold a prior visa. The official Argentine electronic route is preferable when it is open to Iranian nationals; otherwise the application is filed at the Argentine embassy or consulate. A passport valid for at least six months is required.

Do you need a visa?

Yes. Iranian travellers cannot enter Argentina without prior authorisation and must apply before departure. This requirement applies to tourist stays.

How and where to apply

Start with Argentina's official electronic portal (electronic visa / AVE) if your nationality is admitted, then follow the online steps. When that option is not open, prepare your file at the responsible Argentine embassy or consulate.

Documents and fees

Gather a passport valid six months beyond your stay, a recent photo, proof of accommodation, sufficient funds and a return ticket. The cost is around USD 150 as a guide; confirm the precise amount and required documents on the official source.

Processing and tips

No timeframe is guaranteed, so plan ahead and apply well before your travel date. Keep a copy of the authorisation, as it may be checked by the airline and by immigration officers.

Common mistakes

Do not finalise non-refundable bookings before approval, and check that all details match the passport exactly. An incomplete file or a late application are the most common grounds for refusal.
