Fee information

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.
