We only display amounts published by an official source. Confirm the total before paying anything.
What documents are required for a visa for Argentina?

- Valid passport
- Completed application form
- Compliant passport photo
- Proof of accommodation
- Return or onward ticket
- Proof of sufficient funds
Treat this as the common core, not the official list, confirm it with the consular authorities of Argentina before you apply.

A standard file includes an application form, photographs, proof of accommodation, proof of financial resources, and insurance evidence. The consular authority may request additional documents depending on the applicant’s circumstances. The observed official fee is USD 150, which should be confirmed with the embassy or on the official portal before submission.

How to apply

Where do you apply for a visa for Argentina from Namibia?
A consular visa for Argentina is filed with the diplomatic post accredited for Namibia, or with the application centre that post has appointed.
- The competent post is the one accredited for Namibia, which is not always the nearest one geographically.
- An application centre collects the file and the biometrics. It does not decide, it cannot speed up a case, and it is not an agency.
- Appointments are booked with the post or the centre directly. A slot is never sold, and no one can guarantee one.
What if Argentina has no embassy in Namibia?
Then the application goes to the post accredited for Namibia, often in a neighbouring capital, or to a state acting on its behalf. Confirm which post is competent with the official source before travelling to a third country to apply, a rejected file at the wrong counter costs the trip and the fee.
You live in Namibia on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Namibia but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

How long does a visa for Argentina take?
No verified processing time is published for this route. Apply as early as your travel dates allow, and never book non-refundable travel before the visa is granted.
Processing times and advice
Processing times can vary according to the embassy or consulate, the period, and review of the file. Apply well in advance and follow the instructions provided when arranging the appointment. Do not purchase tickets until the visa has been granted.
Before you fly, and at the border
- Passport validity: most countries require the passport to stay valid beyond the return date, and the margin required differs from one destination to the next. Check it on the official source, and count from your return, not from your departure.
- A visa is not a right of entry. The border officer decides, and may ask for a return ticket, an address or proof of funds even when everything is in order.
- Conditional exemptions exist: several countries waive the visa for holders of a valid visa or residence permit from a third country. This depends on the destination and on the document, and we do not publish that rule when our sources do not carry it. The official page does.
- Minors travelling alone or with one parent are often asked for extra papers, typically a parental authorisation and the family record. Ask the post before booking.
- Overstaying is not a formality. It exposes you to a fine, to removal, and to an entry ban that can outlast the trip by years, including for the whole area when the destination belongs to one.
Common mistakes
Avoid attending without an appointment or submitting an incomplete file. Do not assume that the same documents or procedures apply at every consular representation. Check the required documents and submission instructions with the relevant embassy or through the official portal.
