Citizenship by naturalisation

Citizenship after continuous residence: The current ordinary naturalisation procedure requires two continuous lawful years immediately before applying, without departures from Argentina, plus the personal and documentary conditions.

Verify the uninterrupted two-year residence record, assemble the nationality evidence and begin the naturalisation application through RaDEX. Follow the Migration Directorate’s instructions and complete any further examination.

Age over 18, with temporary or permanent residence and two continuous lawful years immediately before the application, without leaving Argentina during those two years.

DNI, evidence of lawful occupation or means of support, Argentine criminal-record certificate and the qualifying residence history. Express the intention to become Argentine before the competent authority.

Citizenship following approval by the National Migration Directorate, followed by the relevant identity and passport formalities.

Permanent residence is not a compulsory intermediate stage. The current ordinary naturalisation rule requires no departures during the preceding two years, so a low-stay residence plan is insufficient.
