Posts: 577Do Not Forget USA Passport Expiration
If you paid the "reciprocity fee" under the old system, the Argies stuck a receipt on one page of your passport. The "fee" is good for 10 years from the date you paid it, so your USA passport will expire before the "fee" does. I have not come across anyone that this happened to, so I am just guessing when I say that if you show them both passports, they will not make you pay the "fee" again. HOWEVER, this is Argentina, so who knows what the authorities will do.

I wonder, now that they do not have the pay-upon-arrival option, what do they do with people who arrive without the online printout? I can't imagine that they stick you on the next flight back to where you came from. However, given that it is Argentina, I would expect that whatever the process is, it is arbitrary, inconsistent and time-consuming.

I'm going NY, Toronto, Chile, EZE on the 20th, do I need anything special or is my passport enough? I'm assuming the fee is still $160 to enter? Thanks.

Thanks Fred and Gato Hunter. I also uncovered this on the US Embassy website right after I posted my query. It's nice it covers for 10 years.
