Partidos, departamentos and the name in brackets
The second level has two names. Buenos Aires Province calls its units partidos, and each partido is also a municipality. Everywhere else the unit is a departamento, and in most provinces a department is a territorial frame for statistics, courts and elections; only La Rioja, Mendoza and San Juan give their departments an administration of their own.
Many departments are named after a person or a date, not a place, so the seat has a different name. Veinticinco de Mayo in Chaco is governed from Machagai, Comandante Fernández from Presidencia Roque Sáenz Peña, General Pueyrredón in Buenos Aires from Mar del Plata. Where the second column repeats the first, the seat bears the name of its unit.
Corrientes is the one province with a second official language. In 2004 it declared Guarani an alternative official language, and in Guarani the province is Taragui Tetãmini, its capital Taragui. Most department names stay as they are; Curuzú Cuatiá becomes Kurusu Kuatia, written in Guarani orthography with k for the Spanish c.

05 · Changes
What has changed since the list was drawn
Two units are new. Lezama became the 135th partido of Buenos Aires Province on 22 December 2009, separated from Chascomús by a provincial law. Tolhuin, on the shore of Lake Fagnano, was carved out of the Río Grande department of Tierra del Fuego on 27 October 2017. Both are added here with their seats.
The provinces and their codes have stood still. ISO 3166-2:AR has kept the same 24 codes since 1998 and only corrected a typographical point in 2010. The two nominal departments of Tierra del Fuego, Antártida Argentina and Islas del Atlántico Sur, cover territory claimed by Argentina and are not counted among the 377 departments in which people are administered.
06 · Questions
Questions about Argentina's subdivisions
How many provinces does Argentina have?
23 provinces and one autonomous city, Buenos Aires, the federal capital. ISO 3166-2:AR gives each a single-letter code.
What is the difference between a partido and a departamento?
A partido is a municipality of Buenos Aires Province with its own elected government. A departamento is the second level in the other 22 provinces and usually has no administration of its own.
Which Argentine province uses Guarani names?
Corrientes. In 2004 the province declared Guarani an alternative official language, and the province is Taragui Tetãmini in that language.
