ETIAS Requirements for Argentines

The ETIAS application process is quick and easy and is done completely online. Argentines do not need to go anywhere in person to deal with paperwork.

To register with the ETIAS, citizens of Argentina simply have to complete a short online form. This takes just a few minutes to do.

The ETIAS application for citizens of Argentina requires the traveler to provide the following information:

• Basic personal information

There are also a few questions related to travel and security that Argentine travelers must answer as part of their ETIAS application.

There is also a small processing fee that must be paid to submit the ETIAS application. Secure servers are used to protect user data, so the whole process is straightforward and safe.

The ETIAS visa waiver for Argentines will allow entry to around 30 different European countries.

The system was designed to grant access to the Schengen Area, which consists of 26 nations. 22 of these countries are also part of the European Union (EU), while the other 4 form the European Free Trade Association (EFTA).

There are 4 other EU countries that plan to join Schengen (Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, and Romania). All of these countries have announced they will also join the ETIAS program. This means that Argentines will need an ETIAS for every EU member country apart from the Republic of Ireland.

Argentines will also need the ETIAS to reach 4 EU microstates (Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, and Vatican City), since these tiny countries have no airports and can only be entered by land from Schengen countries which require ETIAS.

The full list of countries that Argentinian nationals can visit with the ETIAS are as follows.

Argentine citizens do not need a visa to visit the vast majority of European countries. They enjoy visa-free access for short-term stays for almost all destinations on the continent. This includes the Schengen Area.

• Valid for at least 3 months after the date of arrival in the Schengen Area
• Must be shown upon arrival in Europe

During the application process, the passport details are registered to the ETIAS. This means that this specific passport must be used to travel to your European destination from Argentina.

Most of the most popular destinations for Argentinians are in Europe. This includes the top 2 cities visited by nationals of Argentina: Paris and Rome. The ETIAS will allow visa-free travel to both of these cities and many more.
