Moving to Posadas checklist

Before signing, review the written lease with the agent, including its term, rent adjustments, inventory, service charges and payment schedule. Ask the agent to resolve the bedroom count, identify the actual unit and explain deposits, fees, guarantees and cancellation terms. Confirm stairs and the building's rules.^5,6,7

Get the existing water and electricity account information and recent bills. Ask SAMSA about the procedure for your tenancy. Confirm internet installation at the address, then test the connection from the room you will use.^4,5,8

Confirm the school place or care appointment before relying on a rental's location. Try the outward and return journeys. Ask about the local SUBE or SUBÍ Misionero payment system and the fare for your actual route.^2,3,9

Arrange the residence route that applies to you separately from the lease. National visitor guidance gives international permits under the Inter-American Convention one year from issuance. National licenses from Geneva or Vienna contracting states have a maximum of one year from entry. Check the document, nationality and visitor-status requirements, then confirm local and rental-company acceptance. Residents must check licensing separately.¹

SENASA requires a health certificate issued within 10 days before the International Veterinary Certificate, or CVI, is issued. Internal and external parasite treatment must take place within 15 days before CVI issuance or official passport endorsement. Keep these two clocks separate.¹⁰

A first rabies vaccination requires at least 21 days before entry. The stated CVI travel validity is 60 days while the rabies vaccination remains valid. An ordinary vaccination booklet is not an officially endorsed pet passport. Coordinate with the exporting authority and carrier, and ask the landlord about pets.^7,10
