Visa & Entry

Spanish passport holders enter Chile visa-free for up to 90 days. Your passport must be valid for the duration of your stay. At the airport you receive a Tarjeta de Turismo (tourist card) as a small paper slip or electronic stamp. Keep it safe because you need it when you leave.

The 90-day stay is extendable once for another 90 days at the Departamento de Extranjeria in Santiago or regional offices. The extension costs around CLP 100,000. You can also do a border run to Argentina and re-enter for a fresh 90 days, though immigration officers may question frequent re-entries.

Chile does not charge Spanish citizens a reciprocity fee. That fee was eliminated in 2014 for most nationalities.
