Now it’s official: you can get Argentine citizenship through large investments

Did you see the news? The government has now made it official: people who make large investments in Argentina can access citizenship.

Basically, if you invest a significant amount, you can apply for citizenship regardless of how long you’ve lived here. Of course, you’ll first be screened by agencies like SIDE, UIF, and Renaper to make sure you’re not a risk to national security or interests.

What do you think? Could this actually bring real investment, or is it more of a desperate move to attract dollars? Does it bother you that citizenship can be “bought,” or do you see it as a positive?


 
What about people who already have significant investments in Argentina? Would they qualify too, or is it only for new investments?
 
There are a lot of details that they left out and I seriously doubt it will only take 30 days to make a decision. NOTHING in Argentina works too quickly.
