Obtaining a STUDENT VISA is the SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF EACH STUDENT.


 
Each student is responsible for obtaining his/her STUDENT VISA, and must process it within 30 days upon arrival. It has a MANDATORY character.

UBP provides advice to students on how to obtain it, after their arrival in the city of Cordoba, but is not responsible in any way for its obtainment.

    IMPORTANT:
     
    Argentina Reciprocity Fee for U.S. and Canadian Citizens
     

    To enter Argentina, citizens of the countries listed below must pay a “reciprocity fee”. The collection of this “reciprocity fee” is NOT A VISA, since Argentina does not require visas to citizens of those nations for tourism or business.

    The Argentine government fixed this admission fee in an amount equal to that paid by Argentines applying for Visas to these countries:

    U.S.: USD $ 160. – (Multiple entries for 10 years)
    Canada: USD $ 75. – (One entry) or USD $ 150. – (Multiple entries for 5 years, from the first entry)
    Australia: USD $ 100. – (Multiple entries for 1 year)

    UBP recommends that students pay the fee before coming to Argentina on-line, by accessing this site: http://www.migraciones.gov.ar/accesible/templates/reciprocidad/reciprocidad.htm to avoid delays at the airport.
