Kazakh citizens may visit Argentina without a visa for up to 30 days from November, the Kazakh foreign ministry said.

The similar entry rules apply to Argentine citizens arriving in Kazakhstan.

An agreement on mutual trips of citizens entered into force between the governments of Argentina and Kazakhstan on November 1, the ministry reported.
