Historically, the greatest obstacle for the Turkish business community was regulatory uncertainty. Argentina has addressed this through Law 27,742, establishing the Incentive Regime for Large Investments (RIGI).
This framework offers investors an unprecedented “armor”:
30-Year Stability: A guarantee that tax, customs, and exchange rules will not change.
Tax Incentives: Reduction of the income tax rate to 25% and accelerated depreciation.
Zero Customs Duties: Full exemption from import duties on capital goods and specialized technology.
Exchange Freedom: Gradual access to foreign exchange, with 100% free use by the fourth year of operation.

Türkiye, an expert in agricultural machinery and Halal standards, finds in Argentina a partner to transform raw materials into high value-added products for the Islamic world. Opposite seasonality ensures a continuous production flow throughout the year.
Argentina is not just a market of 46 million people; it is a strategic launchpad. The operational resilience of the Turkish entrepreneur combined with the new guarantees offered by RIGI creates a unique investment environment in the region.
