{{Short description|Entry for Argentina in ISO 3166-2}}
'''ISO 3166-2:AR''' is the entry for {{wipe|Argentina}} in [[ISO 3166-2]], part of the [[ISO 3166]] standard published by the [[Organization:International Organization for Standardization|International Organization for Standardization]] (ISO), which defines [[Code|code]]s for the names of the principal subdivisions (e.g., provinces or states) of all countries coded in [[ISO 3166-1]].

Currently for Argentina, ISO 3166-2 codes are defined for 1 city and 23 provinces. The city [[Place:Buenos Aires|Buenos Aires]] is the capital of the country and has special status similar to the provinces.

Each code consists of two parts, separated by a hyphen. The first part is {{mono|AR}}, the [[ISO 3166-1 alpha-2]] code of Argentina. The second part is a letter, originally used in vehicle registration plates (the letters I and O are not used since they could be mistaken as 1 and 0 respectively and were left out of license plates), and currently used in postal codes.

==Current codes==
Subdivision names are listed as in the ISO 3166-2 standard published by the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency (ISO 3166/MA).
