2. Appointment and Interview: A mandatory in-person appointment will be assigned for a personal interview with the authorities.

3. Documentation: During the interview, all required documentation must be presented, including proof of funds and a return ticket (or the funds to purchase one).

Important Notice: Changing immigration status while inside Argentina is strictly prohibited. The Working Holiday Visa must be fully processed and obtained outside the country before your arrival.
