INMIGRAtIoN
Residency & Immigration Counsel for Argentina
Whether immigration is your main objective or tied to a property purchase or company formation, residency has its own legal process — and it goes smoother when planned alongside the underlying move rather than after it.
How Residency Typically Arises:
-
Through investment — Property or business investment can support a residency application (see Real Estate & Investment)
-
Through company formation — Founders and key relocating staff often pursue residency alongside setting up the entity (see Company Formation & Corporate)
-
Independently — For those relocating for reasons not tied to a property purchase or business formation
What we handle:
-
Residency application preparation and filing
-
Coordination with the underlying transaction so timelines and documentation align
-
Guidance on category selection (investment-based, work-based, other)
faq
1
Does buying property automatically grant residency?
No — property ownership can support an application but does not grant residency automatically. It requires its own filing.
2
Can founders and their staff get residency through forming a company?
Yes — this runs alongside formation rather than after it, when planned correctly from the start.
3
Is this handled as part of a real estate or formation engagement, or separately?
Both are possible — many clients coordinate immigration alongside their property or formation matter; others engage us for immigration only.
