Argentina announced in October the launch of a citizenship-by-investment program, offering two main investment pathways: a non-refundable donation of $350,000 to the national treasury, or the subscription of $800,000 in government bonds. Analysts believe the program aims to attract international investors, including wealthy individuals from mainland China and Hong Kong, seeking residency and asset diversification. Unlike most "golden visa" programs, this plan does not list real estate as a qualifying asset.
