The Argentina government has eased the entry for Indian citizens with a US visa. The government on Wednesday passed a resolution allowing Indian citizens with US tourist visa to enter Argentina without needing to apply for an Argentine visa.

This move marks a significant milestone in India-Argentina relations as the country welcomes more Indian tourists to its territory.

"ARGENTINA EASES ENTRY TO INDIAN CITIZENS HOLDING A US VISA. The Argentine Government has eased entry into the country for Indian citizens with US visas. The resolution published in the Official Gazette allows Indian citizens with tourist visas to enter the United States without needing to apply for an Argentine visa. This is a wonderful news for both Argentina and India. We're ready to welcome more Indian tourists into our wonderful country," Mariano Caucino, Ambassador of Argentina to India, said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

Argentina's Minister of Deregulation and State Transformation Fede Sturzenegger posted, "With Resolution 353/25 signed by Lisandro Catalán from the Chief of Staff of Guillermo Francos, the entry of Indian tourists who have a visa for the US is facilitated (they will no longer be required to have a visa to enter)."

It's impossible to improve the tourism account if we don't facilitate their coming!, he said.

Sturzenegger also mentioned that about 2.2 million Indians traveled to the US in 2024, and the US grants more than a million visas per year in India.
