The Anticorruption Bureau (Spanish: Oficina Anticorrupción; OA) of Argentina is a division of the Argentine federal government tasked with auditing the country's public sector and introducing public policies oriented towards preventing political corruption. It is formally a decentralized agency reporting to the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights.[1]

The bureau was created in 1999, as part of the inaugural measures of president Fernando de la Rúa.[2] The Bureau is led by the Secretary of Public Ethics, Transparency, and the Fight against Corruption. Since 2019, Félix Crous has held the position.[3]
