    From the thread I get the impression this is now required every time you enter, not valid for ten years.

    You are correct

    You cannot do that anymore. I suggest you do it right now. You can go to the web site and do it. If you don't do it you will not be able to board when you go to the airport.

    Mine looks like this.

    My question is can you get these at the airport when you land?

    As I did in 2010.

    Reapting what the link says

Once paid, travelers must print out the receipt and present it to the Argentine immigration officer at the time of entry. The fee is valid for ten years from the date of payment and multiple entries. It is advisable to keep multiple copies of the receipt, as it must be presented every time you enter Argentina. The fee applies only to bearers of tourist passports. Travelers bearing diplomatic or official passports are required to get visas prior to arrival in Argentina but are not charged the reciprocity fee, nor are travelers transiting and not entering Argentina.
    Ah, that's why I put the link. It says what you repeated.

    There is no visa required. It is a reciprocity fee.

    Great Post, Thanks for the info!

    Hi Jackson!

    I'll be in EZE soon. Me too, I just got a new passport and so my old one has my EZE visa in it. Good to know that I still can use the old passport with the EZE visa in it. I want to say Hello, and pay you my yearly membership on the other website if possible. Hope to see you soon and thank for all your help!

    PS: I made "Senior Level" are you proud of me? Sorry, still kinda shy!

    That's one reason why they let you keep your old passports, so you can still use the visas contained therein.

    Thanks,

    Jax.

In the future do not overstay your Visa. Go to Uruguay.

It is a tasty break from steak. If you use the "search" feature of AP, you will find lots of information on both places.

    Uruguay

    If you just intend to renew one time and you're uncomfortable overstaying and feel like you must fix it going to Montevideo or Colonia, is the way to do it, not at the office. The immigrations people are looking more for people that have done it several times. While you're there you can load up on dollars.
