Entering Mexico (Entry Requirements)

This depends on which country in which your visit originates. If you are from the U.S. or Canada, you will need your passport or notarized birth certificate with state issued ID. Please note that effective January 2007 all Canadian citizens need a passport if going to Mexico via USA.

 You will also need a "tourist card" unless you are traveling for less than 72 hours within the border zone (usually no further than 20 miles south of the U.S. border except in Baja California and Sonora which have extended their zones). If you are from any other country, you will need to check with the Mexican Embassy or Consulate nearest you.
