Legal Assistance for Argentine Citizenship by Investment for Russian Citizens
When and why to consult an Argentine lawyer, how to choose one, and which questions need separate Russian advice.
Updated: 2026-10-21
Who can provide legal assistance with Argentine citizenship by investment?
Russian citizens should consider an Argentine lawyer experienced in citizenship, immigration, investment, international clients, source of funds, due diligence and family applications. Counsel can assess eligibility, documents, source of funds and wealth, family circumstances, investment structure, procedure and regulatory changes. Russian tax or citizenship matters may require separate advice from a Russian professional.
Why should a Russian citizen consult an Argentine lawyer?
The procedure is new, rules are refined by implementing instruments, and Russian applications typically involve multi-jurisdiction documents and enhanced financial compliance. Mistakes made while preparing the file are hard to fix later.
Argentine legal requirements
Counsel tracks Decree 366/2025 and instruments of the Ministry of Economy, the Agency and Migraciones, and applies them to your situation.
Documents, apostilles and Spanish translation
Defining the list, apostille procedure for Russian and third-country documents and organising sworn translation.
Russian and Argentine citizenship; notification
An Argentine lawyer explains the Argentine side; confirm Russian notification procedures with a Russian lawyer or the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Russian citizenship law may change and notification duties depend on individual circumstances. This website does not provide individual Russian citizenship advice — confirm requirements with the official Russian authorities (Ministry of Internal Affairs, consular offices).
Tax residence
Coordination with tax advisers in Russia and Argentina before investing and relocating.
Russian and Argentine tax law is complex and depends on tax residence, asset structure and personal circumstances. This is general information; consult qualified Russian and Argentine tax advisers before acting.
Banking, Source of Funds and Source of Wealth
Preparing a consistent financial file and planning fund transfers in line with compliance requirements.
Banking availability and compliance requirements change. This website gives no advice on circumventing restrictions and cannot guarantee that any bank will process a transaction. Obtain legal and banking advice before moving funds.
Due diligence and family applications
Preparation for checks and documents for each family member.
Investment structure and regulatory change
Choosing between the announced mechanisms under program rules and tracking changes.
