The National Directorate for Migration[1] (Spanish: Dirección Nacional de Migraciones; DNM) is a decentralised agency of the Government of Argentina responding to the Secretariat of the Interior which is responsible for handling the country's migration policies.
It was created in 1949, during the first presidency of Juan Domingo Perón, to expand upon the responsibilities of the previously existing Immigration Directorate. It initially operated under the scope of the Secretariat of Labour.[2]
Its headquarters are located in the Hotel de Inmigrantes complex, in the Retiro district of Buenos Aires. In the early 20th century, the Hotel de Inmigrantes served as the first stop for the millions of migrants coming to Argentina from Europe and Asia. Today, in addition to the DNM, the building houses two museums and a cultural centre.[3]
