Recently, because of the economic recession that had been affecting Argentina since 2018 and which intensified from 2020, some Argentines are moving to Brazil in search of better opportunities.[2]

The runaway inflation rate, tax increases, the strict control of capital, the increase in Argentine company bankruptcies and the constant loss of value of the Argentine Peso, represent some of the factors that lead to increase in the Argentine immigration process to Brazil and other countries.[3]

A growing Argentine migratory movement exists of young people and families to neighboring countries such as Brazil and Uruguay, as well as to other continents.[4] The majority of the Argentine population is financially dependent on the state.[5] And the main reason to leave is to escape Argentine hyperinflation.[6]

However, following the recent Brazilian economic recession and the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil, many Argentinians left Brazil and returned to their homeland, heavily decreasing the immigration.[7][8]
