Drone registration in Argentina, does not work if you're not a local?

ericschoenmakers · Jan 19, 2020

I will be visiting Argentina shortly and want to fly my drone. I've read I need to register my drone, but I cannot do that as a foreigner on Registrarse - Administración Nacional de Aviación Civil
While I can select my country (Netherlands) in the first part of the registration form (Tramite de autoregistro), but in the second part (Domicilo) when I select "Extranjera" I cannot select "Departemento/Partido" to continue.

Question: how do I register (as a foreigner) my drone to I'm permitted to fly in Argentina? Anyone has experience with this or is able to help me further?

There are contact phone numbers and other useful info on the webpage posted below. The official language is Spanish, but it it dialectic and very similar to the Italian version.

Hello! We're headed to Argentina in a week and a half. Did you ever have any luck?

So far not; they’re not responsive at all. How will you fix this? Any ideas?

Hi Eric,

Did you find a solution? I have the same problem and will be going to Argentina in 6 days.

Has anyone found a solution to this problem yet? Is anyone willing to admit that they took their drone to Argentina as a tourist and did not register it? It appears as though this may be my only option. I am a bit concerned as I did that in Morocco in the fall of 2022 and the authorities took my drone upon arrival at the airport. They were scanning all luggage entering the country, and I voluntarily acknowledged have a drone with me. They took it and kept it for a fee, and I got it back when leaving.
