Field guide
Where the rules live.
Most questions about doing business in Argentina have an official answer somewhere. The trouble is knowing where. These are the sources we bookmark, and what each one is good for.
FX and payments abroad
The central bank keeps one consolidated text on foreign exchange, updated each time a new circular lands. If you are planning payments abroad, read the current version rather than a summary written months ago (BCRA, Exterior y Cambios). To see the original behind a change, the central bank has its own search for circulars (BCRA search), and an importers' chamber keeps a readable list of recent ones (CIRA).
Laws and what changed them
InfoLeg is the official database of national rules (InfoLeg). Its linked rules view shows every decree and resolution that modified or regulated a law. The labor reform is a good example, with follow up rules still arriving this year (InfoLeg, labor reform linked rules).
Trade and customs
The Chamber of Commerce keeps a running page of new trade rules, each linked to the official text (CAC trade updates). Recent examples include the rewritten postal import rule (Government of Argentina) and sworn statements accepted as customs guarantees in some cases (Aduana News).
Provincial tax on bank accounts
Provinces collect gross income tax through withholdings on bank account credits, a system called SIRCREB run by the Comisión Arbitral (Comisión Arbitral, SIRCREB). Each province updates who is included, and taxpayers check their status in SIFERE Web (SIFERE Web). Provincial agencies publish their own resolutions, for example Córdoba (Rentas Córdoba).
Contractors and investment regimes
The tax agency publishes the monotributo category tables, useful context when engaging local independent contractors (ARCA monotributo). The government's page on the large investment incentive regime lists the sectors it covers (RIGI).
