When planning a trip to Mexico, we advise that you kindly consult your nearest Mexican Embassy or Consulate for information regarding entry visa requirements and customs procedures specific to your country of origin. It is important to note that entry and exit conditions can be subject to change with little notice, and we encourage you to stay up-to-date on the latest regulations to make your travel experience as hassle-free as possible.

Upon exiting your flight, you will see signs directing you to immigration.  You will receive a stamp in your passport with the number of days you are allowed to stay written below the stamp, which can be up to 180 days.  The number of days granted is decided by the immigration agent handling your entry (they could give as little as 7 days). It is a good idea to have a copy of your travel itinerary, including accommodations and return flight, handy, as the agent may ask to see how long you intend to stay in the country.

Upon exiting Mexico, you will need to present your passport with the stamp showing the number of days granted. If you lose your passport, you will need to pay a fee of approximately $600 Mexican Pesos to replace the entry stamp. This fee is payable at a bank since migration officers do not accept cash. The process can be completed at the immigration office at any international airport in Mexico, and immigration officials will guide you on how to make the payment.
