Argentina's reopening: what you need to know to enjoy Puerto Iguazú

Reopening of Argentina - Find out which attractions to enjoy in Puerto Iguazu

After the reopening of the Friendship Bridge (Paraguay – Brazil), the reopening of the Tancredo Neves Bridge (Argentina – Brazil) is the next news that has been encouraging tourists who visit Foz do Iguaçu, and take the opportunity to get to know the neighboring countries of the border (Paraguay and Argentina). Thinking about it, the Del Rey Quality brought you a guide to enjoy the city of Puerto Iguazú in a more complete way. On this page you can read not only about the reopening of the Tancredo Neves Bridge, but also some places to visit and buy in Puerto Iguazú. Check out!

Agreement to reopen the Tancredo Neves International Bridge

The health security protocol drawn up by the Trinational Development Council (Codetri) proposes the reopening of the Tancredo Neves International Bridge, in two stages, from December 10th (Thursday). The proposal requires the partial resumption of the border flow between Argentina and Brazil with the implementation of a pilot plan, starting on the 10th.

The protocol for the gradual and safe reopening of the Tancredo Neves Bridge provides for two stages:

  • 1st Phase (15 days duration): daily ticket in Argentina and Brazil, developed jointly between the two countries, contemplating tourists and particularities of the border community. The Tancredo Neves Dias Bridge would operate from Monday to Sunday, from 7:00 am to 12:00 pm and from 4:00 pm to 11:00 pm, leaving from 7:00 am to 1:00 am.
  • 2nd Phase: expansion of the number of people authorized to enter and leave countries via the Tancredo Neves Bridge and access times. Remembering that there will be a review of the operation staggered every 15 days.

After reopening… How about visiting Puerto Iguazú?

And right away, Del Rey Quality already indicates to you the option on the border between Brazil and Argentina: the Duty Free Shop Puerto Iguazu. The Duty Free Shop is located on Ruta Nacional 12, just before Argentine customs. And more: it is not necessary to migrate to go to the mall.

What can I find at Duty Free Shop Puerto Iguazú?

There you will find departments of the most varied products, from cosmetics and perfumes to chocolates, electronics, travel goods, drinks, clothes and toys. Examples such as Calvin Klein, Carolina Herrera, Chanel, Hugo Boss, Johnnie Walker, MAC, Nike, Prada, Ray-Ban, Yves Saint Laurent, among other famous brands, visitors enjoy at the Duty Free Shop Puerto Iguazú.

And when to pay?

Payment can be made in reais, US dollars or Argentine pesos, in addition to international debit or credit cards. It is important to pay attention to the quota for purchases made abroad, because for those who return to Brazil by land, through Argentine or Paraguayan customs, the single tax-free quota is US$ 300.

Oda Vinoteca
