The National Directorate of Migrations issued on March 2022 Provision N° 417/2022 that authorizes the entry and stay in Argentina for humanitarian reasons of Ukrainian citizens and their direct family members, regardless of their nationality, in response to the crisis caused by the war that is going through that country. The measure aims to facilitate and guarantee family reunification of Ukrainian citizens, who are exempt from paying migration fees. Complementary international protection status with humanitarian visa is granted to said persons to guarantee their entry and stay in the country, with a term of stay of up to 3 years. Once that period expires, they can request and access the permanent residence in the Republic of Argentina.
