Marriage as a Path to Citizenship in Argentina: Legal Steps in 2025

If your spouse is Argentinian, the law may allow you to apply for citizenship sooner than most. Here’s a practical guide on how it works.

Does Marriage Equal Citizenship?

Not automatically. You still need to apply through a federal court. However, your marriage may reduce or waive residency requirements, depending on the region.

Required Documents

• Marriage certificate

• Spouse’s DNI and proof of citizenship

• Residency documents

• Proof of integration (children, joint accounts, etc.)

Interview and Evaluation

Some courts request an interview to verify your marital relationship and community ties before approval.

Final Decision

If approved, you’ll receive your citizenship certificate and gain full legal rights in Argentina.
