The National Minister of Health, Mario Lugones celebrated the brand-new determination by the Ministry of Deregulation and State Transformation that allows essential medical supplies to enter the country.
This Wednesday, the National Executive Branch approved Decree 892/2025, a key measure to simplify import and marketing procedures for goods in Argentina through the recognition of international certifications, tests, and technical standards.

"Historic paradigm shift for foreign trade. Decree 892/25, signed by @JMilei, @madorni, @LuisCaputoAR, @Mariolugones_ar and me, is the best finishing touch for 2025. The decree knocks down one of the most restrictive barriers that we had in our trade: the need to certify in Argentina products that were already thoroughly certified in countries with high quality standards," posted Minister Federico Sturzenegger on the social network X.
Ease of bringing essential medical supplies into the country
"With Decree 892/25, we organize a system that for years increased costs and delayed solutions for people with duplicated and unnecessary controls. Today low-risk medical products and other essential supplies can enter the country under a single clear, predictable scheme with technical criteria," Lugones stated.
The minister valued the agility that the entry of different supplies into the country will have.
Mario Lugones:This has a direct impact on people's lives
"We leave behind bureaucracy that did not provide health value. Products such as wheelchairs, gauze, or digital thermometers that come from countries with international standards of the highest quality will be able to enter without the need for new certifications and local controls," he expressed.
"This has a direct impact on people's lives because it removes obstacles, promotes competition, and reduces costs so that it is easier to access the necessary supplies, with smart controls and the focus placed where it really matters, on safety and quality," he concluded.
