Exact physical-presence rules for passport issuance and ongoing status remain part of the operating detail still being clarified. - [Announced requirements](https://www.argentinaresidencyvisa.com/guides/argentina-citizenship-by-investment-requirements) ## What's the difference between residency and citizenship under this program? Argentina already offers residency routes such as Rentista that can lead to citizenship after standard naturalization. The October announcement describes citizenship through investment under the existing legal framework. Ordinary residency options remain available today while the investment channel is not yet verified as operational. - [Residency options available today](https://www.argentinaresidencyvisa.com/guides/argentina-residency-options-today) - [Residency vs citizenship by investment](https://www.argentinaresidencyvisa.com/guides/argentina-residency-vs-citizenship-by-investment) ## Is this legal advice?
