The National Directorate of Migration has approved a resolution which updates the requirements for the proof of economic solvency of foreign nationals applying for permanent residence. The provision, DNM Resolution No. 407/2026, will come into force for applications submitted from July 6, 2026.
The regulations unify the permanent residence requirements under the Migration Law and the Mercosur Residence Agreement and establish 12 categories of proof of economic solvency. These include professionals, technicians, employees, independent workers dedicated to commerce or services, remote workers or digital nomads, real estate owners, shareholders or partners, farmers and ranchers, religious workers, retirees or pensioners, dependents, and students. Each category has specific documentary requirements for proving the applicant’s income and declared profession.
Additionally, the resolution provides for updating the Carnet de Admisión, or Admission Card, issued to residents. The new version of this identity document will not display the holder’s profession, which will, however, still be noted in the online system.
