Flight itinerary for your Argentina visa — built on real aviation data.
Buenos Aires, Patagonia, Mendoza, Iguazú Falls — Argentina is worth every document in your application folder. Argentine consulates require a return or onward flight itinerary with real flight numbers as part of the tourist visa package. For nationalities facing 10–22% refusal rates, the itinerary is one piece of a tight documentation case. Get yours without buying a ticket you might not need.
What you need to know
What is a flight itinerary — and why does the Argentine consulate require one?
Argentina is one of South America's most popular destinations — Patagonia, Buenos Aires, Iguazú Falls — and most Western nationalities enter visa-free. But for nationalities that require a consulate visa (India, China, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and others), the Argentine embassy requires a full travel documentation package including a return or onward flight itinerary. Buying a real ticket before your visa is approved risks significant money; a flight itinerary for Argentina visa applications from Flightinary satisfies the consulate's requirement at a fraction of the cost.
What a flight itinerary is
A professionally formatted travel document built from live GDS aviation data — real flight numbers, correct airline codes, IATA airport identifiers, and accurate departure and arrival times. It demonstrates your intended Argentina travel plan to the consulate without requiring a confirmed ticket purchase.
Why not just buy a real ticket?
Argentine consulate visa refusal rates reach 10% for Indian nationals and 8% for Chinese nationals — and a Buenos Aires return flight from Mumbai or Beijing costs $800–$1,400. That's a painful loss if the visa is refused. A flight itinerary for Argentina visa purposes lets you document your travel plans at a fraction of the ticket price, with zero financial exposure.
Does Flightinary's itinerary work for Argentine consulate submissions?
Yes. Every Flightinary itinerary is generated from real-time GDS aviation data and formatted to Argentine consulate documentation standards — genuine flight numbers, correct routing, IATA codes, and proper carrier identification. It reads as a credible, professionally prepared travel document.

Know your profile
How your nationality affects your Argentina tourist visa application
Argentina maintains one of the most open visa policies in Latin America — the majority of passport holders enter visa-free for 90 days. But for nationalities that fall outside the visa-free list, consulate processing applies the same scrutiny as any other embassy visa assessment. Understanding your profile helps you build a stronger application.
| Passport | Refusal rate | Interview req. | Min. bank balance | Avg. processing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🇮🇳India | ~10% | Conditionally visa-free or consulate | $3,000+ | Visa-free (valid US B1/B2) / 7–10 business days |
| 🇨🇳China | ~8% | Required at consulate | $2,500+ | 7–10 business days |
| 🇵🇰Pakistan | ~18% | Required at consulate | $3,500+ | 10–15 business days |
| 🇧🇩Bangladesh | ~20% | Required at consulate | $3,000+ | 10–15 business days |
| 🇺🇸United States | N/A | Visa-free | N/A | No application needed |
| 🇪🇺EU nationals | N/A | Visa-free | N/A | No application needed |
| 🇧🇷Brazil | N/A | Visa-free | N/A | No application needed |
| 🇳🇬Nigeria | ~22% | Required at consulate | $3,500+ | 10–15 business days |
🔴 Higher scrutiny — Nigeria (~22%), Bangladesh (~20%), Pakistan (~18%)?
Build the strongest possible financial and home-ties package. Argentina's consulate officers are looking for evidence that you are a genuine tourist with clear reasons to return home. An employment letter from a well-established company, property documents, and family dependants in your home country all carry significant weight. Compile at least 6 months of clean bank statements — not 3. Prior international travel history (Schengen, US, UK) strengthens the application considerably.
🟡 Conditionally visa-free — India (valid US B1/B2) / Medium scrutiny — China (~8%)
Present a well-organised, consistent application package. Your flight itinerary, hotel bookings, stated travel plan, and financial proof must all tell the same story. Discrepancies between documents are one of the most common triggers for refusal. Don't rush — a complete application submitted correctly first time is far more effective than a fast, incomplete one.

Stay rules — explained
How long can you stay in Argentina on a tourist visa?
The Argentina tourist visa — and the visa-free allowance enjoyed by most Western nationalities — permits up to 90 days per visit. For those who want to stay longer, Argentina offers a straightforward 90-day extension process through Migraciones in Buenos Aires.
Days per entry
The standard tourist allowance — both visa-free and visa-stamped — is 90 days per entry, from the date of arrival.
Day extension available
One 90-day extension can be obtained at Migraciones in Buenos Aires (Av. Antártida Argentina 1355) before your initial period expires. Fee applies.
Days total per calendar year
While there is no formal cap in the visa law, immigration officers may question frequent back-to-back 90-day stays, particularly for non-Western nationalities.
