In Argentina, alimentary debtors are increasingly frustrating judicial efforts by failing to provide necessary financial support for their children. This issue has prompted the establishment of the Federal Register of Alimentar Debtors, which allows for sanctions against those who owe child support payments. When a debtor is listed in this register, they face various penalties across the nation, including restrictions on renewing driver's licenses, obtaining passports, and opening bank accounts.

The new legal measures target individuals who are in arrears for two consecutive or three alternating payments of court-ordered child support. This initiative aims to enhance compliance with court orders and protect the rights of children affected by financial neglect. The consequences for debtors include disqualification from holding public office, and in some cases, their earnings may be withheld. Social media accounts and digital wallets could also be blocked as an enforcement measure.

This systematic approach indicates a serious commitment by the Argentine judicial system to tackle the problem of unpaid child support and protect children's rights. However, the effectiveness of these measures will depend on consistent enforcement and the public's awareness of the legal consequences of failing to meet child support obligations.
