Argentina (AR) — civil law.
Nothing on this page describes United States practice. There is no certificate sold to an investor, no administrative sale of land for unpaid tax, and no redemption window after a
subasta judicialin Argentina. If you arrived carrying US assumptions, read falsos-amigos first.
Paying for an auction purchase from abroad
Auction money in Argentina never passes through a private intermediary: it goes into a
cuenta judicial — an account in the court’s name at the bank that handles judicial
deposits — and leaves only by court order. A buyer abroad therefore has to solve three
problems in order: identification, getting funds into Argentina and hitting
the court’s deadlines. Each sits at a different legal layer.
Layers.
- Deadlines and accounts — procedural: the CPCCN for national courts, each provincial
CPCCand each portal reglamento. Buenos Aires figures below are Buenos Aires figures.- Foreign-exchange rules — national: BCRA regulation, uniform across the country.
- Tax identification — national: ARCA.

The opening section is open to everyone. The procedure in detail — statutes, deadlines, who may bid, and what the record does not say — is behind a free account.
We ask for one because writing these from primary sources is slow work, and knowing who relies on it tells us which country to do next.
