Non US & Canadian Citizens
If you are travelling from anywhere
other than the US or Canada then you will need a valid
passport that has at least 6 months before it expires
from the day of entry into Mexico.
For many countries including most of
Europe and Australia a pre arranged visa is not required.
On entry you will be issued with a tourist card and have
your passport stamped. This is normally valid for 3 months.
For some countries, however, it will be necessary for
an entry visa to be prearranged. For the list of countries
that dont require a pre-arranged visa see the foot of
this page.
