To get an Argentinian IP address, connect a VPN to a server in Argentina. NordVPN, Proton VPN, and ExpressVPN have Argentine servers, and PrivadoVPN includes one on its free tier. Argentine websites then treat the connection as local. In our November tests from Europe, the IP addresses from these four VPNs read Argentina.
Argentina Setup in Four Steps
- Sign up for NordVPN and install it on your device.
- Choose Argentina from the location list and click Connect.
- Confirm the new IP address with an IP lookup site (optional).
- Load the Argentine site in a private browser window.
Connecting to a VPN Server in Argentina
Pick a VPN that lists Argentina, sign in, and connect to its Argentine server. The VPN replaces your own IP address with an Argentine one, so sites and apps see a visitor in Argentina. The steps are identical on Windows, Android, iOS, and macOS. Our roundup of the best VPNs for Mac covers Apple computers. An IP lookup is optional, but it confirms the switch in seconds.
If an Argentine site keeps showing its international version, clear its cookies or reload it in a private window. Some sites save your earlier location. Apps on your phone can use GPS as well, so the website version is more reliable for location checks. Some Argentine apps appear only in the Argentine app store, which a VPN doesn’t change. Proxies and Tor are other ways to change your IP, though neither lets you pick Argentina as easily as a VPN.
Argentine Server Speeds and IP Checks
Our baseline was 190.36 Mbps with the VPN disconnected. Speedtest was set to a Buenos Aires server for every result, and whatismyipaddress.com showed where each IP address appeared. The four IP addresses read Buenos Aires in the lookups, and IPv6 wasn’t detected on any connection.
| VPN | Argentine location | Download | Upload | Ping |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NordVPN | Buenos Aires | 142.78 Mbps | 16.40 Mbps | 279 ms |
| PrivadoVPN (free) | Buenos Aires | 130.70 Mbps | 17.73 Mbps | 266 ms |
| ExpressVPN | Argentina (virtual) | 123.76 Mbps | 16.23 Mbps | 249 ms |
| Proton VPN | Buenos Aires | 120.30 Mbps | 16.17 Mbps | 276 ms |
Ping between 249 and 279 ms reflects the distance from our Windows 11 test PC in Europe to Argentina. It drops the closer you are to Argentina. For speeds on nearer servers, see the fastest VPNs we’ve tested.
Paid VPNs With Argentine Servers
1. NordVPN: Best for Speed in Argentina
Pros
- Strong download speed on Argentine servers
- Auto-connect to a chosen country
- Dark Web Monitor included
Cons
- Small Argentine server pool
NordVPN’s Buenos Aires server measured 142.78 Mbps, the smallest speed loss we recorded in Argentina, and the lookup showed Buenos Aires. Auto-connect can start each session on an Argentine server. NordVPN also helps with unblocking websites on restricted school and office networks. NordVPN’s Basic plan averages about $3.50 monthly when you commit for just over two years.
2. Proton VPN: Best for a Large Argentine Network
Pros
- Free tier for testing the apps
- Open-source, audited apps
- Stealth protocol for restricted networks
Cons
- Speed varies between Argentine servers
Proton VPN’s Argentine network has 84 servers, located in Buenos Aires. Our test server showed 24% load and downloaded at 120.30 Mbps, with ping at 276 ms. A different Buenos Aires server measured 66.62 Mbps in an earlier test. The app shows each server’s load before you connect, so a quieter server is easy to find. Proton VPN Plus drops to about $3 a month with a two-year commitment, up from about $10 on monthly billing.
3. ExpressVPN: Best for Browser-Based Switching
Pros
- Website shortcuts after connecting
- Post-quantum Lightway protocol
- Apple TV and Android TV apps
Cons
- Single Argentine location
- No split tunneling on newer Macs
ExpressVPN connected with a 249 ms ping, the lowest in our tests, and downloaded at 123.76 Mbps. Its Argentina location is virtual, with the servers in another country, and the IP address read Buenos Aires. The browser extension controls the desktop app, so switching to Argentina takes one click from Chrome or Firefox. Netflix results by country are in our ExpressVPN Netflix guide. Paying for 28 months up front cuts ExpressVPN to under $3 a month.
A Free Argentine IP Address With PrivadoVPN
On a free account, PrivadoVPN connects to Argentina. Its Argentine server measured 130.70 Mbps and read Buenos Aires in a lookup, and free accounts receive 10 GB of data a month.
Proton VPN’s free tier, Windscribe, and Hide.me don’t offer Argentina, and TunnelBear free no longer lets you choose a server. Our free VPN comparison covers data limits in more detail.

For regular use of Argentine sites, a paid VPN removes the data limit, and PrivadoVPN covers occasional visits up to its 10 GB.
