Question 1

Do I need to provide if you're under 18 and apply at the argentine embassy in singapore: a copy of your birth certificate?

Accepted Answer

The Embassy of Argentina in Singapore asks anyone travelling with a minor (under 18) to send a scanned copy of the child's birth certificate with the tourist visa application. If the certificate is not in English, it also needs a certified English translation. The embassy adds that foreign documents, such as birth certificates for accompanying minors, must be notarized by a Singapore Public Notary or certified as true copies by the consulate or embassy of the issuing country. Its tourist-visa requirements file is labelled 2025. Other Argentine missions can ask for different things, so check with the one you will use.

Evidence you can support yourself during the trip, for example your latest payslips, a recent credit card statement, or a recent bank account statement.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

A hotel booking and tourist itinerary. If you don't have a hotel booking, a letter of invitation from the person you're staying with instead, a template letter is downloadable from the same government page.

Question 8

Do I need to provide possible ave electronic authorization instead of a consular visit?

Accepted Answer

Some nationalities that would otherwise need this consular visa can instead apply online for an AVE (Autorización de Viaje Electrónica), but only if you also hold a currently valid US visa in specific categories (B1/B2/E/H-1B/J/O/P), or can show a US entry within the last 2 years, or hold a valid ESTA. This is still an official travel authorization, not a visa exemption, check the Dirección Nacional de Migraciones' own AVE page for the current list of eligible nationalities.

Question 9

Do I need to provide round-trip ticket reservation?

Accepted Answer

A reservation for a round-trip ticket. The government recommends not buying the tickets outright until the visa has actually been granted.

Question 10

Do I need to provide consular interview?

Accepted Answer

An in-person interview at the consulate. Contact your nearest Argentine consulate to book an appointment and coordinate submitting your documents.

Question 11

Do I need to provide if you're under 13 and travel without a parent: an authorization to enter argentina?

Accepted Answer

Argentina's migration authority (Dirección Nacional de Migraciones) says children under 13, of any nationality, need an authorization to enter Argentina when they are not travelling with, or being met by, the person or people who hold parental responsibility or an authorized third party. The child also needs a valid passport (or a travel document under Mercosur decision 46/15). To get the authorization, the authorizing parent or parents must be present with their ID and a document that shows they are the parents (a birth certificate or family booklet). Documents issued abroad need an apostille or legalization by an Argentine consulate, plus an official Spanish translation. The page was updated on 27 August 2026. Confirm with Migraciones or your Argentine consulate.

Question 12

Do I need to provide if you're under 18 and apply at the argentine consulate in miami: authorization from both parents?

Accepted Answer

The Argentine Consulate General in Miami says applicants under 18 need the authorization of both parents to apply for a visa. The parents can give it in person at the consulate, or through a notary and then an apostille. Either way, the parents must identify themselves with a valid passport or national ID and show the child's birth certificate with an apostille. The consulate also says foreign documents must carry an apostille (or be legalized by the Argentine consulate) and be translated into Spanish, ideally by a professional translator. The page is dated 5 January 2026. Other Argentine consulates can ask for different things, so check with the one you will use.

Question 13

Do I need to provide visa validity?

Accepted Answer

A granted tourist visa authorizes a stay of up to 90 days, which can be extended once for a further, similar period by applying to the Dirección Nacional de Migraciones before the original period expires.
