Expiration date on Argentina ETA (AVE)

score:7

Accepted answer

Just to answer my own question here in case some one out there has the same situation as me and can't find any more help.

What I ended up doing was (and I successfully went to Argentina in August without a problem) asked the embassy to issue me a visa sticker by paying again.

So the solution is kind of easy, and they told me explicitly that it is okay. They couldn't do anything with my ETA (AVE) because it belongs to the Ministry of Migration (whereas embassies fall under the jurisdiction of Ministry of Foreign Affairs)

I simply sent over some documents (indeed more than you need to apply for AVE but it is not hard for me to prepare. Requirements might vary by embassies). I then went there for a small interview where they just asked me some questions like how long I will be spending and where.

I received my visa in two days, and it is valid for only 3 months as usual.

The agent at the border didn't say a word when I go through, and the entire process was very smooth
