Legal Any risk to constantly overstaying on tourist visa? How many times can you do border runs in Argentina?

Just read this in another post. It sounds like customs is instructed to deny entry if you have 3 overstays. This is the 3rd person I have had issues or was warned. I do not know if they are just warning. A friend from the UK has been living here for several years and she just got warned also a few months ago this would be her last entry.

I think this is a good thing. No where else in the world are people allowed to just illegally overstay as much as they want. Some neigboring countries are very strict. My friend in Brazil got turned away because he hit the maximum number of days staying there a year. I did not know they track that.

Deport them all.

With Bullrich's new agency it may be tougher for perma-tourists. I heard that the new force will be stationed at border entry points so maybe more scrutiny with people overstaying.

Bullrich creates new migration agency akin to US Homeland Security - Buenos Aires Herald

The agency will include a unit formed by civilians and members of federal, navy, military, and airport police

They keep saying it will get more difficult for people overstaying but I doubt that will be the case when they allow the option to just pay and over stay. Maybe this will be an issue for people that do it over and over again.

i have a friend in colombia that bought a house from his step son. the agreement was 700,000 dolares us. the son in law only wanted to show the house price a 350,000. he could pay the rest later. he got the title. the son in law now wants him tho find a wayto pay the rest to him in colombia including the dollar weakness. the money was sent to his wifes account. my advise is to sent the rest to the wifes account as a loan with paper for the transaction or come to the US and pickup a check, its your problem. another example of someone trying to avoid paying taxes that just causes more problems.

Based on what I understand about Argentina is that there are too many taxes so most of their economy is underground. Not sure if they can easily solve for that.

This seems like it is very common in Argentina to declare lower prices vs what it really is. I guess no one wants to pay capital gains tax.

If they put people in jail for evading taxes it sounds like everyone would be in jail. 🤣
