How to Homologate Your Motorhome and Hit the Road in Argentina

In Argentina, all motorhomes and towed caravans must be officially homologated to travel on public roads. The process requires two key licenses: the Model Configuration License (LCM) from the Ministry of Economy and the Environmental Configuration License (LCA) from the Secretariat of Tourism, Environment and Sports. For self-built or small-scale manufactured vehicles, owners must obtain a Vehicle Safety Certificate (CSV), with the controlling authority depending on whether the vehicle's weight is under or over 750 kilograms.
