Cats in Argentina: rules and travel
No national registration, tax or microchip rule for pet dogs and cats was found; keeping rules are mostly provincial and municipal. Imports need a veterinary certificate and a valid rabies vaccine, with no quarantine listed.
Registration, leash and potentially dangerous dog rules are set by provinces and municipalities, and none were checked here.
Travelling to Argentina with a cat
No special EU rule. Travellers need a Certificado Veterinario Internacional (CVI) from the origin authority, in Spanish, or a legalised official passport, plus a health certificate from a vet within 10 days before the CVI, a valid rabies vaccine and parasite treatment within 15 days.[2]
Same documents from any country. The CVI is valid 60 days if the rabies vaccine stays valid; a first rabies vaccine must be given at least 21 days before entry. Puppies under 3 months need age certification.[2]
No titre test is listed on the SENASA page, and a secondary source says no blood test is required.[3]
The SENASA page lists no quarantine. A secondary source also says none applies.[2]
