What documents will be required?
You can enter Mexico without a visa showing your passport and the "migration Form for Tourists, Transmigrants, Visiting Businesspersons, or Visiting Consultants", which you can obtain from travel agencies, airlines, or at your point of entry into Mexico. This option also applies for permanent legal residents in the USA, Canada or Japan, regardless of nationality.
Under an agreement with Canada and the USA, those countries' citizens may prove their nationality with a passport or other public documents, such as:
- Certified copy of birth certificate.
- Voter registration card.
- Naturalization certificate.
If any of these documents lack a photograph, travelers must prove their nationality with another official identification:
- Driver's license.
- Identification issued by a state or official agency.
Although Canadian and US citizens do not need a passport, the National Institute of Migration recommends one to expedite passage through the point of entry.

Visitor's Permits - FMM
Passport holders from countries on Mexico's "no visa required list" do not need to apply for a formal visa to visit Mexico. They may, instead, use a visitor's permit known as a Forma Migratoria Mutiple, or FMM.
If your country does not appear on the no-visa list, you should check with your nearest local Mexican Consulate for details of visa requirements before you travel to Mexico.
For countries that don't need a visa, a Mexican Visitor's Permit (known as a FMM) will need to be filled out in place of a visa. This is a simple form: pick one up from the check-in counter at the airport and fill it out on the airplane before you land or you can acquire one at all land border crossings. If the airline you are traveling with does not have any FMMs at the check-in desk or on-board the plane, don't worry, you can get one when you land in Mexico and fill it out before you line up to have your documents checked and stamped by the officials at the airport.
Visitor's Permit FMM Fee
Mexico charges a fee to all tourists and business visitors arriving in the country. The fee is approximately US$22, and the money collected is handed to the Tourism Ministry to promote Mexican tourism.
Airlines normally collect the permit fee on behalf of the Mexican government and include the cost within the total airfare (under 'taxes and surcharges'), so in the majority of cases, there will be no need for you to pay the fee separately.
If you do not arrive in Mexico by airplane, then you will need to pay Mexico's Visitor's Permit fee separately if you travel beyond the 22 miles/35 km 'free zone' after crossing a land border into Mexico or arriving by sea on a private vessel. If you do this, you will have to complete the FMM Tourist Visa at the immigration check-point and pay the fee separately.
