Argentine Peso (ARS) FAQ

Yes, Kraken supports deposits and withdrawals in ARS via bank transfers in Argentina through payment partners. You must use a bank account that is in your name and registered in Argentina.

To deposit or withdraw ARS via bank transfer:

- Your Kraken account must be verified.
- You must provide a valid CUIT or CUIL (Argentine Tax ID).
- The bank account must be in your name and located in Argentina.
- You may need to complete identity and address verification.
 

CUIT and CUIL are unique identifiers issued by the Argentinian government. CUIT is used for tax purposes, while CUIL is for labor and social security purposes. Local regulations require that we collect either a CUIT or CUIL for all clients who reside in Argentina. 

To utilize local payment rails in Argentina, you are required to have a CUIT or CUIL.
