lrockwitt Posted August 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Do Us citizens have to pay a reciprocity fee for Argentina? We are traveling to South America in January. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRS/NC Posted August 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The fee for Argentina was ended about 1.5 years ago. :) Check the Argentina website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam in CA Posted August 13, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 13, 2017 It was removed before the Olympics. Otherwise, the Rio Olympics would have been empty of spectators rather than partially empty of spectators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDC1 Posted August 13, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 13, 2017 It was removed before the Olympics. Otherwise, the Rio Olympics would have been empty of spectators rather than partially empty of spectators. Rio is in Brazil, not Argentina. The fee in Argentina was removed after a business oriented administration won in Argentina. The also allowed the paso to float to proper exchange level. The two changes made it much more attractive for Americans, and others to visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casofilia Posted August 13, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The reciprocity fee for Argentina was removed in March 2016 just as President Obama was about to make a visit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globehoppers Posted August 14, 2017 #12 Share Posted August 14, 2017 President Obama negotiated the elimination of the "reciprocity fee" with the president of Argentina for US citizens and since August 2016 no fee is levied. US citizens only. We cruised Antarctica out of Ushuaia south of the Antarctic Circle this past February and no fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
