Argentina Digitizes Personal Import Filings Under New ARCA Rule Now in Force

The measure streamlines registration in MALVINA without altering duties, valuation timing or restrictions.

Overview

  • ARCA issued Resolution 5805/2025, published in the Boletín Oficial and signed by executive director Andrés Edgardo Vázquez, with immediate effect.
  • The update mandates the simplified procedure of Resolution 3.628 with registration in the MALVINA Detailed Declaration module using specific customs codes.
  • Only goods for personal use or consumption may enter, provided quantity, quality, variety or value do not indicate commercial or industrial intent.
  • Operations remain subject to general import duties and taxes, with customs value determined at verification and applicable economic and non‑economic prohibitions enforced.
  • The OM‑2153‑A application was converted to an interactive digital form for cases where electronic registration is not feasible, and Customs was empowered to adjust formal requirements.
