Re: Reciprocity fee, was Argentina MERCOSUR/Non-MERCOSUR payments?

The Canadian Government tells me that I need to pay an entrance "fee" prior to 
arriving in Argentina.
I cannot pay it IN Argentina, or at the border. Someone else on the *hotel 
threads has pointed this
out too, for US and AU citizens as well. Has anyone figured out WHERE on the 
website to make this
payment? I found a spot, tucked painfully away, where you make your VISA 
payment, but not for this
fee/tax.

You pay the fee on this web site:

https://reciprocidad.provincianet.com.ar/

Click SIGN UP under the login box, create an account with a user name
and password you can remember, and then you can pay the fee which for
Canadians is USD 92 paid with a credit card, good for ten years.  Once
you have paid you'll immediately get a PDF of a receipt which you
print out and keep with your passport to show when you arrive in
Argentina.

MERCOSUR is a common market of South American countries.  Canada and
the US are not members, so it doesn't apply to you (or me.)

R's,
