Hello everyone,
I've been reading about the possibilities of getting a passport stamp at Iguaz�, and there are a lot of "I hear"s and "I wouldn't"s, but not too many real-life experiences. I am an American without a visa to Brazil, and with the lax customs situation it sounds complicated.

I will be at Iguaz� this weekend, with a day or so of flexible time, and would love to get my passport stamped for *reentrance into Argentina* while I'm up there.

My question, then, is: has anyone tried to get OR successfully gotten an Argentine passport stamp during a trip up to Iguazu?
Might an in-and-out to Paraguay be an option? Is there a way to make it work with Brazil?

I'd appreciate any advice or experience anyone can offer!

Saludos,

Michael

I went to Brazil for a few hours a few months ago. They didn't stamp my passport with a Brazil enterance or exit stamp only for the Arg side.
If you go to Paraguay from Iguazu you have to pass through Brazil or cross at Encarnaci�n which is near the city of Posadas in Misiones. If you are planning to stay any time in Paraguay or Brazil (and get your passport stamped) as a US citizen you have to have a visa for both countries.

Thanks Sheena! But I wasn't entirely clear on your response. I understand that you got no entrance or exit stamps for Brazil, but what I wonder is...

...did you get a REENTRACE stamp for returning to Argentina? Thats what I'm after.
