Overview
- The Province of Buenos Aires unveiled a redesigned official site (portal.vtv.gba.gob.ar) with user profiles, appointment booking, verification history, an interactive map, real‑time assistance and anonymous fraud reports after officials flagged more than 220 fake pages.
- Both the City and Province confirm that in October vehicles without a valid VTV—or those rejected in inspection—cannot legally circulate, with penalties that may include fines, vehicle retention and licensing complications.
- October tariffs are set: in CABA about $63,453 for cars and $23,858 for motorcycles, while in PBA about $79,640 for cars up to 2,500 kg and $31,856 for certain motorcycles.
- Inspectors are enforcing stricter safety checks, with damaged or scratched windshields prompting rejections alongside failures in brakes, tires and lights until repairs are completed.
- PBA offers a 50% VTV discount in October for eligible retirees and pensioners whose income does not exceed twice the minimum wage, with documentation such as proof of benefits and vehicle ownership required.
