A free 30-minute call
Meet us. Ask anything. You tell us where you're stuck; we tell you honestly whether we can help and how we'd approach it. No prep, no pressure.
Your local navigator for life setup in Argentina.
Real next steps, not vague advice.
We help newcomers understand how things actually work in Argentina and unblock residency, healthcare, housing and language obstacles in the right order. We're not tour guides. We're not a law firm. We're the local mentors who've been through these processes firsthand and know which mistakes to avoid.
// en qué ayudamos
What we help with.
The high-stakes areas where it pays to get things right the first time.
Six things we can help you get done — each has its own page with the questions people actually ask, answered. If yours isn't here, book the call anyway and tell us.
- Residency
I want to acquire residency in Argentina
Which visa routes you can actually qualify for, what to file first, and whether you need a lawyer at all.
- Healthcare
I want to get healthcare in Argentina
Understand the healthcare system and options. Public, private or a mix — what the law protects, how to find care and stay covered with or without a DNI.
- Housing
I want to find housing in Buenos Aires
Options with and without a DNI, renting without a garantía (the rental guarantee), the up-front cash, and a lease you understand before you sign.
- Finance
I want a bank account and a way to pay for things, without a DNI
What a passport opens today, what additional documents enable, how to manage payments and cash without Mercado Pago, and when to hire an accountant.
- Spanish
I want to learn Argentine Spanish
Apps, tutors, private schools, or a public university — which one fits your budget, your lifestyle, and the errands you actually need Spanish for.
- Community
I want to find friends and build community in Buenos Aires
Events, groups and a weekly life here — not a giant expat chat you muted.
First a free call. Then a plan you can follow.

The intake session
A long working session to get your full story. Where you are, what you've got, what's due when, what you live on — and the questions you didn't know to ask.
- part of The Plan03/tu plan por escrito/
Your written plan
What to do, in what order, what depends on what, and who to actually call. Built for your case. Yours to keep.
- part of The Plan04/seguimos/
Follow-ups
Follow-up calls to talk through your case and customized plan, and WhatsApp in working hours, Buenos Aires time. A local ally on your side until you're moving.

The intro call
Free
30 minutesMeet us, tell us where you're stuck, hear how we'd approach it. If you don't need us, we'll say so.
what's in it · qué incluye- Two humans, on a video call, in English or Spanish
- Ask anything about your case
- An honest answer to "can you help me?" — including "no, but here's who can"
- How we work and what it costs, plainly
The Plan
likely USD 100–500
Our standard package for the four-step plan. Most plans cost between USD 100 and USD 500. Where yours lands depends on what you need help with and how complex your situation is. We print the range so you know what to expect before you book. On the free call we work out which of our lines you need; then you get a proposal with the scope and the price in writing, before any money moves.
what's in it · qué incluye- An intake session in English or castellano — where you are, what you've got, what's due when, what you live on
- A written plan across whichever lines apply — what to do, in what order, what depends on what, which documents, who to call
- Follow-up calls to talk the plan through once it meets reality (how many depends on your case)
- Questions over WhatsApp while you work the plan — working hours, Buenos Aires time
- Anything in person — that's an extra, below
- Filings, or calls made to offices and providers in your name
- Lawyer or accountant work — we introduce them, they bill you directly
- Any guarantee of what an office, an insurer or a bank will decide
Add-ons — an accompanied Migraciones (immigration office) visit, phone calls with you on the line, document translation — are quoted per case and listed on each service page.
Who this is for. And who it isn't.
para quién es — y para quién no
This is for you if…
- You're moving to Buenos Aires — or you're already here — and you'd rather do it right than do it twice.
- You've read the forums and the official sites, and they disagree with each other. And, on a bad day, with themselves.
- You want to understand your own case well enough to handle it, with someone local checking your work.
- Your Spanish is a work in progress, and the phone calls are the scary part.
This isn't for you if…
- You want someone to file for you. We coach and we sequence; we don't submit paperwork on your behalf.
- You want legal representation. We're not lawyers. When you need one, we'll say so and point you to people we've used or checked ourselves — without taking a cut.
- You're passing through for a few weeks. Enjoy it, truly. Come back to us when you're thinking in months.
- You want a guaranteed outcome. Nobody honest can promise what Migraciones (the national migration office) or a bank will decide. What we can do is make sure you don't do it in the wrong order.

Two people who did the paperwork.
dos personas que ya hicieron los trámites
Your local mentors: Sofi is Argentine and bilingual; Sam is American and got his residency here without a lawyer. We've done the hard work firsthand: residency, private healthcare, bank accounts, and the apartment hunt — and we kept notes.
We've stood in the lines. We check things by phone and in person before we tell you anything.
