Onward Ticket for Argentina
Yes — Argentina lists proof of onward or return travel in IATA TIMATIC for visa-free tourists entering for up to 90 days, and airlines flying into Buenos Aires Ezeiza (EZE) and Aeroparque (AEP) enforce the rule at check-in. While Argentine border officers (Dirección Nacional de Migraciones) check inconsistently on arrival, long-haul carriers from North America and Europe — as well as regional carriers like Aerolíneas Argentinas, LATAM, and Copa Airlines — routinely require a confirmed outbound PNR before boarding a one-way passenger.
