Working Holiday quotas for citizens of Chile and Argentina
The Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration (SIRI) has announced that a new quota period for Working Holiday for citizens of Chile and Argentina begins on 1 September 2025.
VFS Santiago, Chile opens for appointments on 1 September at 9 am (UTC -4). VFS Buenos Aires, Argentina opens for appointments on 1 September 2025 at 9 am (UTC -3).
Working Holiday for citizens of Chile and Argentina is covered by a quota of 150 residence permits annually.
The quota year runs from March to February of the following year.
From March to August (1st quota period) SIRI can grant residence permits corresponding to half of the annual quota (up to 75), and from September to February (2nd quota period) SIRI can grant a maximum of the remaining part of the quota (up to 150). Permits will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis.
Once the combined quota of 150 Working Holiday residence permits for Chilean and Argentinian citizens has been used up, no more residence permits can be granted until 1 March 2026, when the next quota period begins.
Once 75 Working Holiday residence permits have been issued to both Chilean and Argentinian citizens, any remaining applications will be rejected and the processing fee to SIRI will be refunded. Applicants should be aware that any fee paid to VFS or the representation in Chile will not be refunded if the application is rejected
