The Argentine Federal Court has ruled ：Milei’s Decree (DNU 366/2025) Unconstitutional
A Federal Appeals Court (Sala III de la Cámara Civil y Comercial Federal) just ruled that the core sections of DNU 366/2025 are unconstitutional.
Last year, President Milei issued an emergency decree shifting the entire citizenship/naturalization process away from Federal Judges and handing it over to the National Directorate of Migration (DNM) to create a streamlined, administrative process. It lays the foundation for the proposed Argentine CBI programme.
The court noted the new administrative process stripped away crucial judicial checks, like the involvement of federal prosecutors and the right to judicial appeal if denied.
Citizenship applications must now revert back to the federal courts.
It means the new CBI applications will be handled by the federal judges like other naturalisation cases. No special treatment.
Be cautious with any agent who is trying to label this potential programme as ‘easy’, ‘fast’ and ‘reliable’.
