U.S. to help Argentina reenter visa waiver program, DHS says

  • On Monday in Buenos Aires, the United States and Argentina signed an initial agreement aimed at enabling Argentine citizens to visit the U.S. without needing to obtain a visa.
  • This move follows years of strict U.S. visa restrictions imposed since 2002 and reflects improved bilateral relations under President Javier Milei and President Donald Trump.
  • The signing took place in Milei's office and was attended by U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Argentine Security Minister Patricia Bullrich, highlighting Milei's alignment with U.S. policy.
  • The Department of Homeland Security commended Milei for realigning Argentina’s foreign relations with the U.S., highlighting that Argentina has the lowest rate of visa overstays among Latin American nations and referring to the agreement as a strong indication of the positive ties between the two countries.
  • This agreement initiates a process toward Argentina's entry into the U.S. Visa Waiver Program, though officials caution visa-free travel could take two to three years to materialize.
