Argentina Opens Door to Imports of Specialized Used Vehicles

Resolution 293/2025 streamlines import procedures to lower costs, opening markets for specialized equipment

Overview

  • The regulation broadens the eligible list to include off-road tractors, motorhomes, fire trucks, cranes over 10-ton capacity and multi-axle industrial vehicles.
  • Homologation certificates are replaced by sworn technical declarations and approved safety certifications from UN, EU, US or Brazilian bodies now qualify.
  • Imports must still meet Argentina’s road safety law but can rely on international approvals to facilitate registration.
  • This measure builds on June’s Resolution 222/2025 on used auto parts and advances President Milei’s broader deregulation agenda.
  • The policy targets cost cuts and competitive gains for construction, mining, forestry and tourism sectors.
