Q: what's the current process for bringing my shotgun into argentina like the temp import permit and all that stuff, has it changed recently

AWS EXPERT REPLY
Bringing your own shotgun into Argentina does involve a specific process, including obtaining a temporary import permit (known as a 'Formulario 02' or similar, depending on current regulations) through the ANMAC (National Agency for Controlled Materials). This requires detailed documentation, advance planning, and can sometimes involve a waiting period and fees. The regulations can also be subject to change, so it's crucial to have the most up-to-date information closer to your travel date.

However, at AWS Lodge, we specialize in making your hunting trip absolutely seamless. While you certainly have the option to bring your own firearm, many of our guests prefer the convenience of renting one of our high-quality shotguns directly at the lodge. Our dedicated team takes care of all the necessary permits, licenses, and paperwork for you, ensuring a completely hassle-free experience from the moment you arrive. This way, you can focus entirely on the hunt without worrying about international firearm regulations or potential travel delays.

AWS Lodge Note: These insights are compiled from historical guest queries to assist in your trip planning. While we strive for accuracy, field conditions, weather, and specific logistics may vary. Our staff handles all the hard work in the field. Always confirm final gear and itinerary details directly with our team. Contact Staff »

"Honestly the best wingshooting trip of my life. The high-volume dove shooting is exactly as advertised - non-stop action. The lodge is luxurious and the staff makes you feel like family."

"I was skeptical about the 'no internal flights' claim, but it's true. Landed in BA and was hunting by the afternoon. The mixed bag program allowed me to hunt ducks and perdiz in the same trip. Top notch."

"The food alone is worth the trip. The asados in the field were incredible. If you are looking for a luxury lodge near Buenos Aires, this is the one. Can't wait to return next season."
