Argentina Citizenship by Investment 🇦🇷
Strongest passport on the list: 169 visa-free destinations
Argentina introduced a citizenship by investment framework in 2025 (Decrees 366/2025 and 524/2025), allowing naturalisation for qualifying contributors without the ordinary residence period. It is the newest program on this list and comes with the strongest passport.
