We are going to tell you EVERYTHING that we know about how to actually get Argentinian citizenship. Everyone talks about it but there is no solid information on the actual process. We are here to change that.
Obtaining Argentine citizenship can bring several benefits as a second passport. As an Argentine citizen, one can enjoy visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to several countries, including most of South America, Russia, and the Schengen area. It also provides access to healthcare and education facilities, as well as the opportunity to invest in the country's economy.
To obtain the rentista visa in Argentina, an applicant must show a monthly income of at least USD$2000 per month. They also need to have a medical certificate, proof of accommodation, and a criminal background check. The visa is valid for one year, renewable for an additional year.
It will take you about 3 years ON THE GROUND to get the actual physical passport - this is incredibly fast.
Contact us if you need help with the process!

can you do a podcast sytle interview with someone who's got a citizenship this way and how their whole experience was? would make great content
Yep. It was in the works actually - but I have just been a bit too busy to release new videos.
But soon! I am setting up a small studio in my office to push videos much much faster.
I'm looking for a home, preferably in Latin America. Mexico would have been my first choice, but they have priced themselves out of the market, so to speak. I can totally afford to LIVE there, but I can't fulfill the requirements of permanent residence and citizenship. Then I looked at Paraguay and they are being pissy for some reason. Argentina (which has actually been suggested to me by many of my students already) is starting to look pretty good. I will definitely book a call!
The non-renunciation clause is actually an advantage. Countries don't allow multi nationalities do waive renunciation if those countries don't let their citizens renounce such as Iran, Argentina....
Interesting. I actually didn't know about this
You can renounce Argentinian citizenship through the court with a lawyer… if you are naturalized. Cannot renounced if you receive by birth.
Interesting. Didn't know about this
@@NearShoreLiving yes 🙏🏼🦋
Very good info! I agree with everything you said, and I live here
Awesome video! I had never considered Argentina before and now I'm starting to change my mind.
Some people love it and others hate it but def worth the visit to see for yourself.
@@NearShoreLiving make more videos on argentina and any loopholes you've found to stay away (for some time every year) from there and still get the passport
Very informative. Thank you
I enjoyed your video. Thanks 🙏
nice video.very honest and useful. Thanks
Great informative video! I appreciate you putting this out there.
Thanks! Let us know if you have any video idea suggestions!
Thanks for the info 😊
No problem!
Super channel! Thanks.
Thank you too!
Fantastic video
Thanks again
Great video I would love to know more since I am looking to get a passport
Nice one bro keep it up
Thank you, you offer a very realistic picture!
You're welcome 😊
Perfect video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the information. It was very comprehensive and well put information on argentina
Thanks! Let us know if you have any video suggestions
@@NearShoreLiving Would love if you could cover brazil. I am aware of multiple residency options with eventual citizenship for brazil but a detailed video on the same would be great!!
You explain so good Thanks buddy , honest and great ideas , are you also doing the immigration service stuff in Buenos Aires or any recommended lawyer so one can get advice once in Buenos Aires
Thank you ❤
Great video1
Thanks!
Bruv, I kid you not. You did an amazing job on this one! This vlog is beyond INFORMATIVE!
Thanks! Highly appreciate it
@@NearShoreLiving keep posting bangers, waiting for new videos!
Thanks!@@wagmi614
Love your honest, to the point, realistic, unsophisticated, down to the ground content
Thanks
Nice video
Thanks!
Great video - I like the graphics. Assuming that you are in downtown BA - how is the internet speed? Stable? Cost?
Pretty good. It'll vary from building to building (in terms of which providers you can use)
But here are some sample prices from one of the providers that I was using
www.personal.com.ar/internet?icn=internet&ici=home_quicklinks
500 Mbps for about 4000 pesos so like $12ish?
Interesting!
Awesome!
Thanks!
Great video! What happens when entering Argentina wrt customs when bringing all your belongings? I have lots of electronic devices I would bring, I have to pay duty on all of that right?!
Not entirely sure. Are you bringing that much?
@@NearShoreLiving yes quite a bit of stuff, drum machines, synths.. the whole setup, easily would get taxed idk, around 5-10k I guess
@@enriquefolte8746 I wouldn't really know to be honest
Is there any chance if i got my visit visa and then want to convert to work visa or other visa they allow or its illegal to overstay there and search for work and then apply for residence permit
Is it possible to migrate to Argentina without income? what is the requirement for real estate investment? Thank you
Thank you for the video.. can you tell how much time the application process for citizenship takes for parents of Argentinian citizen as I heard that parents can instantly apply for citizenship after birth
yes they can
Great video, and very useful information. I have a question, If I want to spend a year in Argentina, and not interested in getting citenzenship. Can I stay without residence permit or visa?
As of right now, yes. You can just do a border run or over stay your visa but if you do keep a close eye into what Milei does
Great video! Subbed! I’m a Canadian citizen and would like to take the CELTA course in BA and spend a year teaching English in the capital of Argentina. Do you think I’ll be able to rent a flat on only a tourist visa and will there be any serious repercussions for overstaying on my tourist visa?
Yes and No.
The main issue a lot of landlords have is that people can take over the apartment by just living there because of the laws the government has.
real estate is in short supply in B.A mostly (I think) because ppl would rather it sit there empty than rent it out.
Either way, it makes it hard to find a place to rent.
So yeah, it is possible. A lot of landlords would be happy to rent to a foreigner/Canadian and ignore all the bs requirements but it'll be hard to find these landlords because they get hundreds and hundreds of messages and some deal with real estate agents which are basically drones.
I would suggest maybe rent an airbnb first and then negotiate with the landlord for a long term thing outside of AirBnb.
CELTA is hard as f**k - make sure you FULLY understand grammar BEFORE doing it! It will expect you to know grammar inside out and to be able to teach it and it does NOT teach you grammar!
@@NearShoreLiving Sounds like UK. They protect the tenants more than the landlords (who actually plow more money into the economy).
i'm intersted in the 0.01% chance thing of starting on day 1 ;) has anyone done it?
Their retirement visa's for elderly expats are very expensive compared to many other countries. The expense of just getting there is significant for Americans and Canadians ? -- That is disappointing for many who would like to perhaps retire there and who could otherwise easily afford the monthly expenses and benefit the local economy ? -- A good example is Cambodia who charges $180 / year after the first 30 days for merely $35 ! No other requirements - period ! And you don't have to leave the country - if - you don't want to ! $5,000 for Argentina - and having to leave - is ridiculous.
I understand how Argentina is in the financial crisis it is in. To make matters worse, Argentinans elected a buffoon for president. 😂
Great info thank you! I have questions.
- Does the time it takes to get citizenship start from the day you arrive in Argentina or does it start on the day you get the Rentista visa?
- During those 2 years, can you be absent from the country for 6 months per year? I've heard from some that you should spend at least 6 months per year, some say 7, some say 10. Is that simply up to the judge and there's no actual minimum?
- There seems to be a new digital nomad visa. I heard that it allows you to not pay taxes on foreign income for the duration of the visa; could that be true? I also heard Argentina doesn't tax you for your first year in the country.
- Technically when you get your visa/residency.
- There is a bunch of wiggle room here but yes, at the end of the day technically, it's up to the judge.
- We have a video on my thoughts on taxes in Argentina - it might be worth a watch.
- I wouldn't recommend the digital nomad visa in Argentina tbh
@@NearShoreLiving Thanks! What's wrong with the digital nomad visa?
@@NearShoreLiving hi, please what is wrong with nomad visa in Argentina ??
please can you make a video explaining every thing about it ? thanks you
Thank you for the video, subbed. The beauty of South America is what encourages me to learn Spanish.
One question though, how's Argentina society's attitudes towards Chinese, would my application be rejected by the court 'cause they don't like Chinese? Or it's truly that everybody is just so relaxed and loving like I hoped it would be 😂
There's been a lot of immigration from east Asia.
In my personal opinion, Chinese are seen as hard working and industrious people by a lot of Argentinians but I am not really sure how this reflects to immigration.
But Buenos Aires even has a nice decent China town where you can even get 老干妈
@@NearShoreLiving Thanks for your reply. Quite surprised you know the language and then in the other video you said you've been to China 🤣.
In the other video of yours you mentioned Argentina visa about people with PhD degree. Can you expand on it a little bit more? PhD holders can just apply for Argentina residency program?
@@yantheman1398
Check these out
www.argentina.gob.ar/interior/migraciones/radicaciones-no-mercosur-residencia-temporaria
You should be able to translate with Chrome.
Those are the various ways anyone can get residency in Argentina
Nice to hear that foreign rental income could be used for the rentista visa. Does the amount required go up if you have kids?
So when you say that you have to spend 2 years within country to maintain the residency, does that mean you need to spend 6 months per year in country? Or does that mean for 2 years you can't even leave the country in order to qualify to keep it and then to appeal for citizenship?
HI very great explanation and precise. Argentina is one of my best country around the world. I have been there 2 weeks few years a go. Very great food and people. One thing though. You mention twice background clean criminal check. Are you talk about one from Argentina and one from our country like USA. And When we have to do so?
Great Thanks,
You will actually need both.
Argentina one is pretty easy to obtain from inside of Argentina.
You will also need an FBI one
I'm currently looking into getting residency in Argentina as I plan to move there from the UK and find work/study in the next few months. Can I start the process now from the UK or do I need to be in Argentina first? I plan to travel there for a few weeks next month, is there anything I can do towards the process whilst there?
Only thing you ca do is prepare the documents that you need from your home country and getting them as postilled.
How many days per year do you need to actually be in Argentina during the 2 years to be able to apply for the citizenship?
Ron, what's the extent of hands on involvement do real estate citizenship programs require? The Donation programs don't improve assets but there is no additional involvement required. What do you think? I guess plain investment in a CD or real estate is okay since it doesn't require any hands on involvement.
Yep. I very much agree with you.
Real estate tends to always be a headache in my opinion (gotta file taxes, gotta talk to property management, guests broke this and that, etc)
@@NearShoreLiving "Citizenship by investment". Wait , one can just open up CD's in Argentina and receive citizenship that way?
Great Info Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Which visas work for obtaining citizenship? Ideally I would like to stay first year as digital nomad (which is transit visa) and second as a student or smth.. not sure yet. Will it work? I read online that in 2021 some law was declined which allows any physical presence to count in these 2 years.
Yeah. I think most of the visas count - not sure about the digital nomad buy student ones def count.
@@NearShoreLiving currently I am interested in digital nomad visa especially. But online there is not much information because visa is too new.
I'm guessing you need a visa to go to Argentina right? Check their immigration website. There is an old video on this channel with the link to the immigration website which has all the info
For someone who trades forex, which is the best way to get a permanent residence and an Argentine passport?
Appreciate the video man. Cleared a bunch of things up for me in fifteen minutes that I couldn't find in over 10 hours of research. Keep it up.
If you have not already, if you can do a video talking about those visas and other things for young people and children that you mentioned, that would be super.
Thanks! Much appreciated. That's why I wanted to make these videos - so many experts out there yet so little factual information.
" you can do a video talking about those visas and other things for young people and children that you mentioned"
You mean like for Argentinian youth? or what did you have in mind?
@@NearShoreLiving If I recall correctly you mentioned when talking about visas that if you are young or have a child there are easier ways to get visas.
@@sirgalahad2 ah yeah. Correct. That video is in the works. Thanks for the suggestion
@@NearShoreLiving So from what we've seen in your videos so far, these jus soli citizenships are Canada, US, Brazil and Argentina, right? You should make a series on these.
The US doesn't have a tax treaty with Argentina, and so this raises the possibility of double taxation of income; on the other hand, BECAUSE there's no tax treaty, IRS officials are unlikely to cooperate with Argentinean tax authorities if/when they were to ask for information about a given person's tax history. And so it would seem then that a US citizen living in Argentina wouldn't necessarily have to disclose all of his income (from outside Argentina) and assets (located outside Argentina) to the Argentinean authorities.
Yep.
Thank you for making it clear that where not a crap-hole. 👍🏼
😅 Argentina is very nice
@@NearShoreLiving have you been to Mar del Plata? That’s my birthplace, and we’re planning on moving as soon as we retire in 4 yrs. It’s gorgeous!
Good
Thanks
My wife and I are contemplating buying a house in Bariloche, Argentina but need your thoughts on an important topic. Can you please define “clean criminal background check” I have a misdemeanor (long story) that I received back in 2004. Will this prevent me from obtaining dual-citizenship in Argentina? Thx in advance for your help!
Tim
It might prevent you from getting residency!
It's a case by case scenario, don't believe anyone that gives you a gurantee but depending on what it is then it might be possible
by the way, does the rentista visa apply to the family? kids, parents..
Yeah. The requirement of income will increase a bit depending on a few things but yes.
thanks for your prompt informative video , i will move next few months , can you provide any sustainable lawyer contact for helping preparing documents ...
Team@nearshoreliving.com
What stage do you have to be at to buy property, tourist, pr, or citizen? If i get citizenship can my daughters get it?
You can buy real estate on a tourist visa - no issues.
I think it varies on their age (just going off top of my head) but for sure they will qualify for PR.
My brotha i live in mexico 8 years and im ready to come over i deamericanized my self i was a truck drive and im waiting on my settlement money once that is settled wil that be enoigh i subscribed to your channel and would like your help
For Argentina, as of right now, they are still quite flexible with people overstaying their tourists visa so it might be wise to try just living in the country for a year or two with just a tourist visa and see if it's worth the time/effort to get residency/citizenship.
If I get a 1 year student visa and extend it for 1 year, does that count as residency for citizenship (as those are a total of 2 years of studying)?
I am not 100% sure if there are special things for students, I know for a fact that you can get PR through the student visa.
My educated guess is that you can become a citizen as well.
Could an Airbnb booking of 185 days suffice for rentista visa and then for citizenship application?
Check out the new video
This is interesting. I live in the U.S. I’m looking to obtain a 2nd passport. My mom is from Argentina. She was born in Buenos Aires and came here as an adult. I noticed the Argentinian passport is visa free to countries that I would like to visit that I couldn’t with the U.S. like Russia is visa free travel. I do agree that growing up with the Argentinian side of the family the food is delicious.
You can probably get it through your mom!
Email the consulate near you and ask for information.
It should be rather inexpensive to get it and fairly easy (collecting documents from your mom)
If you are feeling lazy and don't want to contact them, we can also provide that service
team@nearshoreliving.com
Ah, Dominica's CIP should give this to you as I believe it has visa free access to both China and Russia.
Fantastic best go to guy for me
No BS ,,
Thanks!
how long should I stay within the country in the 2 years for the citizenship? is it possible just spend 1 month a year as holiday there?
Technically anything is possible since it's a trial process rather than an application.
I would say spending the 2 years or close to it might be your best bet.
There are some countries that aren't so picky in LATAM about being inside the country.
@@NearShoreLiving so for example, which country? :)
I talked to an immigration lawyer. He told me the only way to get a rentista visa is to have "passive" income. For example, income from a rental property or an annuity. Do you know of other ways to get residency? Do you offer any services along these lines?
You need passive income, 100% correct.
There is a video on showing income for this visa. I would recommend watching that video as well.
@@NearShoreLiving Where is this video?
@@kenhilliard5845 It should be in the most recent videos. Maybe less than a week.
I'm a digital nomad and planning to set a base in Argentina. I've heard that, in order to get citizenship, I need to get the permanent residency first which takes like around 3 years and then spend consecutive 2 years in the country. Could I just skip the PR and just stay in the country on a temporary residence for two years and then apply for citizenship?
Out of curiosity, where did you hear that? It seems to be a constant point amongst English speakers - We get our info directly from Spanish speaker lawyers (my team speaks Spanish, etc) but I am curious into where this is coming from since it's really common in English.
@@NearShoreLiving PR truly requires 3 years of residency. However, you can apply for citizenship without PR in just 2 years of residency (with temporary residence)
@@SneakBug8 hey I am planning to take a visit visa and come here to Argentina. My question is, during the stay with a visit visa, will it count to the citizenship process?
I am trying to gain residency in Argentina and move 2 dependents there. I am from the U.S. We have no Argentina descent. What monthly USD income is required to rent, live, and gain citizenship in Argentina with US government disability income?
The law just changed yesterday but the only change was the official amount on the website.
My video is still remains valid in terms of $$.
What is the difference between permanant residency and citizenship in Argentina?
Citizenship gets you an Argentinian passport
The same as any other country
If you have an American and Argentinean citizenship, will the Spain passport be possible at the faster timeline.....or is the Spanish program limited to native Latin American citizens?
I've heard some rumors that people get the Spanish citizenship after naturalization and I've heard other say that it's not true.
I feel like it's not a large amount of people who have done it to know the truth. I suspect that it's case by case and lots of work arounds since Spain can be a bit messy too
I'm assuming you mean American born guy who naturalized in Argentina
@@NearShoreLiving American who lives in Argentina for a couple of years to get Argentine citizenship.
@@NearShoreLiving I suspect very few people know it might even be an option.
But what if my income is not 2000$ per month? Is there any other way to get a residency permit in Argentina?
There is one old video on the channel about Argentina that you might be interested in.
@NearShoreLiving hello dear Sir, thank you for replying. I stumbled upon different sites on google in regards to getting temporary residency permit. It's said that you need a monthly income of 30 000 Argentinian Pesos to be considered eligible for temporary residency permit. 30 000 which is roughly around 150$ i guess. Is that correct?
Does a student visa contribute towards the path to citizenship?
Yeah.
@@NearShoreLiving So studying in Argentina will get me passport and a bachelor in only 4 years!!!
I need to book a call (you've a good looking website BTW )
I think so. But I'll be honest, I don't know much about the student visa route.
How do I apply for tourist Visa?
What's your country of citizenship?
I was told that if you got married you received citizenship immediately did that change
I am pretty confident that you get PR - bu the amount of people who think it gets you citizenship makes me wonder if I am wrong 😅
Can I ask where you heard this from?
@@NearShoreLiving I believe it was Google and a few other sources but a few ears I'll go now they say only PR and wait for citizenship. Can you find out? I am thinking how about moving there and doing this because they are beautiful wonderful
I hope I understood correctly. If I become Argentinian citizenship, I will lose my US citizenship?
You can keep both
How is the requirement of living in Argentina is actually enforced? Can’t you leave the country at all during these 2 years? Should you should your passport stamps?
You'll have to stay there 6-8 months/year
And their passport control is actually pretty solid
When you stay in argentina for 2 years.. can you travel to other countries or you have to stay inside the country for 2 years
You can travel.
@@NearShoreLiving Do they look at the yearly requirements as a day's test. Meaning if you spend over 183 days in a calendar year you qualify for that year?
Also, do you know if the time before you apply for the citizenship has to be under a visa, or could you for example visit for 90 days as a tourist, then later in the year apply for a visa and spend another 3-4 months, and have 1/2 years now under your belt for the citizenship process?
@@christiantuff8837 watch one of the last videos I made on this topic. It's better explained.
Is dating not so great for men in Argentina?
That depends. I think men that are usually hyper focused on dating usually go to Thailand, Colombia, etc
how about getting citizenship by marriage ?
check out our new video on Argentina.
can I apply for an Argentina university and get citizenship?
Yes. This path is very much possible.
if a baby born in argentina did that baby get passport or not
Yes
Can we get in touch for consulting regarding residency in Argentina?
Send us an email! Email in the description
I'm interested in the citizenship, only problem for me is that I can't stay in the countey two years because i work outside the country would i still be able to apply for citizenship if i spent most of the time outside the country?
No, unless one of your parents is Argentinian.
I’m very intrigued by this
thanks!
Hi, great video, as usual, congratulation. Concerning the 2 years residency, do the DNI allows you to work (or create company) in argentina ? Thanks
Yep. You'll be able to open a company but I would strongly suggest you look into Argentinas banking issues first
Does Argentina have language requirements when applying ?
Check out the new video
@@NearShoreLiving about 2nd passport making you poor ? I believe i did but cant recall you addressed language requirements for Argentina. Could you please let me know ?
@@modan5246 sorry I mean there's a new video about Argentina. I cover it in detail there.
my wife is Argentina national does that help?
Yeah - that's as easy as it gets! You qualify for residency just based on that.
❤❤❤😊
Is it possible to study in an Argentinian university and after 3 years apply for permanent residency or citizenship ???❤❤❤
I'm not familiar with the path but I'm pretty sure it is based on the amount of Brazilian students who do it
I am from Canada 🇨🇦
@@anthonyjen4089 yeah def look into it. I think it is possible
Would be nice if you could do a video for getting Argentine Citizenship through marriage to an Argentine national . What is the process??
Very similar process. Marriage gets you PR. Exact same process minus the Documents you have to provide.
@@NearShoreLiving will i get instant citizenship after the marriage?
cannot reneounce it and good luck if they come up with citizenship based taxation!
I’ve read/heard that Argentina doesn’t allow dual citizenship. I wonder about that.
Argentina has no limits on how many other citizenships you can get
Love your work. I may be in contact with you if I begin working on getting citizenship there. I'm also a digital nomad from USA. You think it's wiser to go for a Paraguay residency or Argentina residency? Would Paraguay make me renounce my USA residency?
Hi,
So for residency, no one will ask you to renounce your citizenship. For citizenship, Paraguay doesn't allow dual citizenship technically.
I would say that traveling would be my first step and if you like one of the places then getting residency is the next step
👍🏾
Can I make friends if I approach people in public places in Argentina?
Sure why not?
@@NearShoreLiving Hello, thanks for reply. Are they friendly towards strangers?
@@Rain-ec4jj It would vary from stranger to strangers but I personally feel like they are - some people might disagree but I think they are.
i thhought it was 1000$ a month

Hi, I like your video but need to confirm, you said the monthly retirement income is $2000, but others say it was $1500 and has changed or lowered to $500. I'm retired with lots of savings but my US monthly retirement is only $927, will that work?
@@saveamericalive287 Correct. The amount required has changed (increased).
My advice is to find a reliable lawyer to look at your case individually.
@@NearShoreLiving Does marrying an Argentinian make you instantly eligible for Argentinian citizenship without a minimum residency period requirement? Appreciate your reply. Thanks
I just went through the process, and 900,000 Argentine pesos were enough for a family. I transferred the money through Western Union, and it was around 850 USD for the 900,000 ARS with fees included.
@@miroskavdiaz2884 Did you get your citizenship or just applied? If yes, how much time it took for you. Also if you are married to a Argentinean do you get immediate residency?
If work remotely for a company outside of Argentina, could I qualify for the rentista visa? Thank you.
Yes 100% Assuming that you're making more than USD$2k/month.
I should add: technically employment income DOES NOT count but the truth is different on the ground.
@@NearShoreLiving Thank you
@@NearShoreLiving What do you mean "truth is different on the ground"... Does that mean creating a company and showing remote work income as dividends?
@@biggieg3881 Every day case is different but in a general sense, yes.
Do people really get naturalised? I've heard many Latam countries make it easy to secure residency, but not to become citizen.
Surprisingly many do. It def varies from country to country - you are right that some countries make it extra hard to become a citizen but some like Argentina naturalize many foreigners everyday.
@@NearShoreLiving Argentina, Chile and Paraguay? I've heard Panama makes it almost impossible.
@@angelatorres9142 Yeah, I've heard the same thing about Panama.
@@NearShoreLiving Thoughts on El Salvador? Someone pointed out in NC's latest video that they have no property taxes and perhaps lower corporate taxes. Is it really as close as it gets to UAE?
@angelatorres9142 property taxes in El Salvador are quite low... almost zero, but not quite. Note that, in general, it takes 5 years to get the citizenship, and you'll have to pass a language test. But the tax system is mostly territorial (there's one exception.... pertaining to capital gains.... that I know of).
Sweden allows dual citizenship :)
They do! I was rewatching the video after I finished editing and I was like "opppps! too late now"
Good catch tho!
@@NearShoreLiving Fun fact. I actually meet the guy who triggered the introduction of dual citizenship in Sweden. It used to be illegal and this guy was working as a bureaucrat for the govt. He pretty much just asked around in the govt "Why don't we allow it? Why do we not allow it?" and everyone was pretty much "hmmm not sure why we don't allow it. Guess why not allow it" and it was changed. Sometimes laws are just there because they are old and nobody asked "Why?".
@@victorbjorklund that's funny. I have a feeling that many laws just don't get updated because many officials simply don't know that there is a need/benefit to changing them, etc.
Ron, since St. Kitts is capitulating to the EU and the US, that's the end of Caribbean independence. They are just appendages of the USA and the EU.
Yep. I have said that to people before but they thought I was being ridiculous. The same goes for Mexico imo as well 😅
Smaller countries cannot ever be sovereign nations. This also applies (imo) to Taiwan, Singapore, etc.
When you are a little guy, you just have to learn to exist in the shadow of the bigger one. It sucks but it's just reality.
@@NearShoreLiving So what good are the CBI programs altogether?? If there are transportation lockdowns you could have 10 passports and still not be able to get to your Plan B country.
@@dovygoodguy1296 I think having sources of income are more important than passports but if someone is really worried about being more independent of the west then Caribbean countries are def not a good option.
Gotta go with the guys who actually don't listen to the US.
But that being said, I like the US a lot.
@@NearShoreLiving It sounds like you don't follow too closely what's going on here and in Canada.... We're on a Titanic, even a powerful Titanic
What do you mean?
With the deteriorating economy why would anyone want to commit themselves to Argentina compared to Uruguay?
I think Argentina is just a nice place and if you got income from abroad Then the economic issues are felt a lot less.
@@NearShoreLiving But why wouldn't Uruguay be better? Surely economic problems in Argentina inevitably create an unstable situation.....
@@dovygoodguy1296 yeah. That's why I don't live in Argentina at the moment. There are many things in daily life that are complicated in my opinion.
I think people tend to like Argentina for cultural reasons so the economics are easily overshadowed as long as you have a foreign source of income.
“Your life is taxable…” welcome to the US. 😂

Thank you for the great content, can you open up the $2k income part, because i'm currently working remotely fulltime and earning that income but not as a passive and i'm getting paid through crypto wallet, is there any other way than passive rent income to qualify for rentista?
The word rentista in this case doesn't imply just money from renting real estate, etc. They just generally want to see "income" more so than anything.
Crypto is def not an option - there are many options but it varies from case to case but in general (very general) - the idea is to show proof that you're sending money into the country + the money is legit. How you do this is very open ended and it varies on your particular situation.
@@NearShoreLiving Thank you again for the clear & quick response, you are awesome helpful
@@NearShoreLiving I can travel to Argentina without a visa for 6 months. This is a right recognized by the Argentina government for my country. There is open-ended information for obtaining temporary residence with a Rentista visa. I am trading online. Ebay, Amazon, ETSY, Shopify, etc. I have a good income level. My payments through USA Citibank come in weekly periods. Can I present the bank extras of these payments as proof? Also, will the payment receipts I get from Argentina by making regular money transfers through Western Union work?
@@EmrahGNDY I will be releasing a video in the next few days explaining the passive income part.
Do i need to spend 2 years continuously or i can leave the country for a small amount of time then return
Yeah you can leave and return
@@NearShoreLiving Is there a set amount of time you are able to leave and come back?
