Hunting Licenses | Southern Outfitting


January 25, 2022by Southern Outfitting

It is becoming challenging to bring your shotguns from the US into Argentina. In years past, it was as simple as arriving at your destination airport in Argentina and filling out some forms with the RENAR department, and paying a small entry fee. Today it is far more time-consuming, more expensive, and requires much more planning on the part of the outfitter and an agent who will be your personal guarantor that signs a document as assurance that your firearm will leave the country with you at the end of your trip.

The Federal Police and government have also irrationally determined that a semi-automatic shotgun is more dangerous than an over/under or side by side. Due to their views of semi-automatic firearms, it is effectively impossible to bring even the most common shotgun like the Beretta 391 or the Benelli M1 into the country. Because of the known challenges and bureaucracy in place, Southern Outfitting will not facilitate and/or assist with the temporary importation of semi-automatic shotguns. (This policy is in place for the protection of our clients, rather than a preference of your outfitter)



Each province within Argentina requires hunters to have a hunting license. Licenses known as “permiso o licencia de caza” and are paid to the Argentina Wildlife Resource Office, known as Argentina Ambiente or Fauna Departmento. Often you will hear the word permit used which is a more popular translation of license in Argentina.

Prior to your trip you outfitter will ask for passport information. This information is used for your hunting license and is supplied to the province in Argentina you will be hunting in.

The cost of the hunting license varies from province to province. For example in Cordoba Argentina the license is $65 per day which is at the high end of the scale. Many hunters that shoot doves in Cordoba hunt the afternoon of arrival and the morning of departure, and even though these 2 half days are considered 1 full day from a lodge perspective, for hunting licenses you will be required to pay the license fee for each day you hunt regardless of the length of your hunt. Entre Rios and Santiago del Estero provinces charges $150 for the entire hunt regardless of the number of days.
