Material changes

We have reviewed the documents following consultations with our local counsel in order to update the section on Foreign Exchange Controls. This update reflects the recent significant overhaul of the country’s foreign exchange (FX) framework, which introduces a more flexible FX regime, as outlined in the Alert Argentina 1/2025 published on May 13, 2025.

Concisely, currency restrictions on individuals residing in Argentina have been lifted. Our manual highlights the relevant changes also for legal entities and unfolds the implications for FX activities such as buying securities and receiving loans abroad.

Non-material changes

Some comments and content have been slightly reworded (without introducing material changes) to reflect the regulatory situation/current interpretation of the regulatory framework more accurately.
