Annual compliance

Last verified: 24 Oct 2026 · Status: Stable

Each year an Argentine company approves financial statements at the shareholders' meeting, files them with the registry, files tax returns, and renews beneficial owner statements. Foreign shareholders registered under article 123 must keep their registration current.

Key rules

  • Shareholders' meeting. Within four months after year end to approve financial statements and allocate results (Law 19.550).
  • Filing. Audited financial statements filed with the IGJ (or provincial registry).
  • Tax. Income tax return in the fifth month; transfer pricing in the seventh month. See tax calendar.
  • Beneficial owners. Annual IGJ statement.
  • Article 123 shareholders. Annual information to the IGJ on the foreign shareholder.
