Overview

• Decree 196/2025 modernizes Argentina's traffic code by introducing digital driver's licenses via the Mi Argentina app, with physical cards now optional.
• Drivers must cache their QR codes for offline use to avoid infractions due to connectivity or battery issues; failure to present valid documentation is penalized.
• Private licenses (A, B, G) can now be renewed remotely every five years, with validity periods adjusted by age: five years for most, three years for those over 65, and annual renewals for those over 70.
• The LiNTI permit for interprovincial transport has been eliminated, with professional licenses (C, D, E) now valid nationwide if issued by ANSV-authorized jurisdictions.
• Buenos Aires faces mounting pressure to adopt the decree before the May 19 deadline to prevent recognition gaps for licenses across provincial borders.
