The UAE foreign ministry lists Argentina as visa free, so Argentines buy no visa before flying. The visit visa is given free on arrival with 90 days in total over six months. Before you book, read your own embassy's travel advice, which is dated and has changed with events.
The embassy's advice
The Embassy of Argentina in the UAE posted a statement on . It says:
- Travellers should avoid non-essential or tourism trips to the UAE and postpone them until the regional situation is stable.
- Travellers should avoid transit through the UAE's international airports because of airspace restrictions and flight cancellations.
- People already in the UAE should follow the instructions of the emirate authorities and keep away from military installations.
- Keep a valid passport in good condition, and any other documents needed to travel or identify yourself.
The page also quotes the UAE Public Prosecution on sharing unverified information on social media, which carries legal consequences. We do not know if the advice has changed since that date. Read the embassy's page, then your airline's notices.
The embassy
It is in Abu Dhabi, in the Al Karamah area. The page lists a Consular Services menu but not which services it covers, so ask before you go. It has no office in Dubai on that page.

What we do for Argentines
We file the extension before day 90 and check relatives on other passports, since some need a visa before boarding. For a job offer, your employer files the permit; see the work visa guide. To bring a spouse and children, see the family visa guide.
How it works with us
Send the photo page of your passport and your dates on WhatsApp or the form below. The adviser tells you if you need anything and, if so, quotes one total before you commit. Our team builds the file and follows it. This is a private visa service, not a government office; ICP or GDRFA decides.
If ICP or GDRFA refuses, they keep their fees. You get, in writing and before payment, what share of our total would return to you.
