At the border

  • Visa-exempt visitors (and holders of valid US, Canadian, UK, Japanese or Schengen visas, or permanent residence there) may stay up to 180 days; the officer decides the actual number of days.
  • Mexican consular guidance asks for a passport valid for more than six months from the date of entry and in good condition.
  • Officers can request a return or onward ticket, proof of funds (for example credit/debit cards) and accommodation details.
  • Air arrivals are recorded with a digital Forma Migratoria Múltiple (FMM); land travellers use a paper or electronic FMM obtained at inm.gob.mx/fmme and must keep it until departure.
  • A non-resident visitor fee applies (Ley Federal de Derechos, art. 8 fr. I); travellers staying under seven days and children under two are exempt from it when entering by land.
  • Colombian nationals flying in must complete INM's electronic pre-registration and carry the resulting QR code and FMM.
