Discusses the prevalence and reliability of express delivery firms within the country, time from large U.S. cities, and relevant customs procedures, including de minimis amounts.
International courier delivery services are very active and most global express delivery firms have significant operations in Argentina, including FedEx-Argentina, DHL-Argentina, and UPS-Argentina. Express delivery and courier services are widely used in Argentina for both national and international transportation of packages.  The shipping times to Argentina will depend on what type of courier service used. Expedited shipping can arrive within 2-5 working days whereas some economy services may take three weeks or more. It also depends what part of Argentina you are shipping to, as packages going to a city will arrive more quickly than those going to a rural area. Postal codes in Argentina are called 'códigos postales' . They start with a single letter that represents the province, followed by four digits that show the town or city, and then three letters to display the side of the city the address is located.
