Applicants who opted for the Argentine nationality before a Federal Court in Argentina may apply for their National Identity Document (“Documento Nacional de Identidad”, DNI) at this Embassy. Minors must attend the Embassy accompanied by their parents.

REQUIREMENTS:

- A copy of the court ruling that declared the applicant an Argentine citizen.

- Applicant’s Argentine birth certificate (issued once the Lebanese birth certificate has been registered at the Argentine “Registro del Estado Civil y Capacidad de las Personas”). See model in the attachment.

- Applicant’s Lebanese passport or ID card.

- Applicant’s Argentine parent's birth certificate or court ruling that declared him/her an Argentine citizen.

- Applicant’s Argentine parent's DNI, Libreta de Enrolamiento or Libreta Cívica (only if he/she has/had one).

Once the DNI application process is concluded, you will be given a receipt with the RENAPER website and a tracking number, so that you can do a follow up. Said website will indicate the moment in which the DNI arrives at this Embassy and is ready to be collected by its holder. If you provided an email address, you will also receive notice of your DNI's arrival by email. You may collect it from Monday to Friday, from 09.30 until 14.00, without need for an appointment. If you wish to apply for a passport after your DNI is at the Embassy, please refer to the links below.
