Costs & timing
What this route costs for this passport and destination.
What it costs
Visitor levy
- 2026 visitor immigration fee (per person)
- MXN 983
Most foreign visitors entering for tourism pay Mexico's 2026 DNR of MXN 983 per person; commercial air tickets include it. For land entry, Mexico's Consulate says stays under 7 days are exempt and longer stays are charged at departure. Canada's current guidance says stays up to 7 days are exempt, so the exact treatment of a 7-day stay is unclear; confirm with INM. For land entry, pay at an INM checkpoint, online or at a border bank, and keep the receipt with your FMM. Other exemptions apply; check the official guide for your route.
Read the official fee guidancePublished government charges. Check the official service for the final total before you pay. Check whether the visitor levy is included in your ticket or payable separately. Verify route-specific exemptions and any amount due before travel.
Arrival paperwork is a separate step
Digital Multiple Immigration Form (FMMD)
Follow the airport instructions to complete or download your FMMD. Check the passport stamp or e-gate receipt for the days authorized, and keep the digital form or receipt through departure.

Check the stay allowed at entry
Mexico may authorize a visitor stay of up to 180 days, but that is a maximum, not an automatic grant. An immigration officer sets your actual stay at entry. Check the date or day count in your passport stamp, FMM or FMMD record, and keep that record through departure.
Official guidanceSome existing visas or residence cards may waive Mexico’s visa rule
A valid, current visa from Canada, Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom or a Schengen country, or proof of permanent residence in Canada, the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, the Schengen Area or a Pacific Alliance country, may be used instead of a Mexican visa. Some Mexican consular guidance specifies that the visa must be multiple-entry. Check the conditions for your document with a Mexican consulate before travel and carry it with your passport.

Small preparation steps to keep your travel information within reach.
Check your airline's passport rules
Mexico requires your passport to be valid through your stay. Some airlines may refuse boarding if it expires within six months of travel, so check your carrier. That six-month condition is an airline rule, not Mexico's entry requirement.
