Argentina Citizenship by Investment
Productive Business Investment — from USD 500,000 in a qualified Argentine venture
Invest at least USD 500,000 in a productive Argentine business venture across qualifying sectors including agriculture, manufacturing, technology, energy, or infrastructure. The investment is vetted by the Ministry of Economy and the Agencia de Programas de Ciudadania por Inversion (APCI) on a case-by-case basis under DNU 366/2025. The project must demonstrate productive economic contribution to Argentina, and the investor holds the qualifying position for the duration set by APCI.
Government Bonds — from USD 1,000,000 in Argentine public debt instruments
Subscribe to a minimum of USD 1,000,000 in Argentine government bonds or qualifying public debt instruments through the Banco Central de la Republica Argentina (BCRA) and authorized financial institutions. Instruments are held for the qualifying period defined under DNU 366/2025. The cleanest CBI route for applicants without operational business commitments, with the investment serving as a direct contribution to Argentine public finance.
More details
Argentina citizenship by investment is a new fast-track naturalization route established under DNU 366/2025, with a preliminary announced minimum investment of USD 500,000. Eligible applicants obtain Argentine citizenship and a passport in approximately 6 to 16 months by making a relevant investment in Argentina, as defined by the Ministry of Economy and reviewed by the Agencia de Programas de Ciudadania por Inversion (APCI). The program operates alongside the historic Law 346 framework and is one of the only fast-track citizenship routes in Latin America.
Argentina anchors a fast-growing Mercosur economy with full dual citizenship, broad visa-free travel access on the Argentine passport, and a relevant investment framework rather than a one-way donation. The program operates under the Ministry of Economy and Direccion Nacional de Migraciones.
