Frequently Asked Questions
Internet
Santiago del Estero Lodge has free Wi-Fi internet service.
Passport & VISAS
A valid passport is necessary, with at least 6 months remaining until expiration. No visa is needed for US or European citizens.
Citizens from other countries should check entry requirements online or with your local Argentine consulate.
Customs and Firearms Registration
United States: if you are planning to travel to Argentina with your guns, let us know in advance. You must pre-register each gun (U.S. Customs Form 4457 is the one you will need to fill in). This is a certificate of registration for personal effects taken abroad. You will need to present your firearms for this procedure at a U.S. Customs office before your flight to Argentina. Please keep the original Form with your passport and put a photocopy of the form in your gun case. This regulation applies only to re-entry into the United States. You will also need to check with your airline once you have your itinerary as they all have different regulations regarding traveling with guns.
Rest of the world: you will need to check with your country and also the airlines to see the regulations for traveling with guns.
Gun Entry Requirement
Guns must be declared and gun permits purchased on arrival in Argentina. You are required to pay in cash per gun (please inquiry via e-mail). Please be aware that for guns with interchangeable/extra sets of barrels, each barrel/ set will be charged as a separate gun.
The information on your shooting questionnaire will be used for your gun entry permit and the authorities will carefully check it on arrival. To avoid delays, please be sure it is absolutely legible and accurate. On departure your guns will be checked by the authorities, and gun papers must be stamped at that point. Fees are subject to change without notice.
Clothing & Equipment
Your shooting clothing should be brown or green, camouflage is not a must. Always think of wearing your clothes in layers and bring a light rain jacket in case it rains. In winter, you will need a jacket for early in the morning and late afternoon, some days can be cold all day long. Regarding footwear, we always recommend ankle-height shoes, but you can wear sneakers if you want. In summer it gets warm, so a breathing shoe is an excellent choice. At the lodge, for dinner, clothing is casual.
Here are some things that you will need or want for the field: ear plugs, shooting glasses, hat, shooting gloves (remember that this is high volume shooting and shotguns get hot) shell pouch, band aids, sunblock cream, bugs repelent spray, etc. and small bag for these items to take to the field. For duck hunting, you will need waders.
Health
You can always consult with your physician for medical advice on traveling to Argentina. There are no vaccines required to enter the country.
Electricity
Argentina works with 220 volts. A standard converter and European adapter for a two-pronged plug should work fine.
