If you don’t have a Swedish passport, you must send this e-mail at least 40 days before your departure from Sweden, but never earlier than 60 days from that date.

If a person or institution has already requested or obtained your entry permit (permiso de ingreso) from Dirección Nacional de Migraciones (DNM) in Argentina, it's important that you mention this in your e-mail.

3) Await the Embassy’s reply, which will be emailed within the week. This reply will contain:

- Date and time for an appointment at the Embassy (Narvavägen 32, 115 22, 2nd floor). Depending if you have all the documents required.

The visa appointment may not last longer than 30 minutes.

If you are under 18 years old, you must attend the appointment with your parents, who will sign an authorization for your visa application.

If your passport was issued by an American or European State and no required document is missing, you may be informed right after the interview if the visa has been approved and, if so, you will be asked to wait (or return to the Embassy in) 30 minutes to collect the visa.

If your passport was issued by another State, in some cases the answer will be postponed for 25 to 35 days after the interview. If you are no longer in Sweden by the time the visa is approved, you will be able to collect the visa from another Argentine Embassy or Consulate.
