In 2025, Finland’s embassy and consulates in Argentina (Buenos Aires) received 5 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 5. Applications rose by 400% compared with 2024 (1).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 11.1% of the applications lodged in Argentina that year. Finland’s consulates worldwide refused 13.4%. Finland was the 14th most applied-for Schengen state in Argentina.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Argentina, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
