URGENT: EZE Entry Requirements Re: Age
Hello fellow FTers,
I will be traveling to EZE alone this week for pleasure. I am 20 years old. Something compelled me to visit the State Department's website about the country, and now I'm a little concerned. The State Dept website mentioned that anyone residing in Argentina, regardless of nationality, must have a notarized letter from their parents giving him or her permission to leave the country. I assumed this applied to residents of Argentina, which wouldn't apply to me since I would have a tourist stay and a US Passport.
But then I found the website of some language learning school that says:
In Argentina, people over 21 years old are considered of legal age, therefore, any person less than 21 years of age wanting to enter the country alone or with a person that is not a legal guardian must present a written authorization signed by their mother, father, or guardian endorsed by the Argentine consul in the place of origin. The document can be included in the minor’s passport.
Can anyone with prior experience comment on the likelihood of being denied entry into Argentina for being just a little shy of 21?
