What are the visa requirements for visiting Mexico?
The Mexican Tourist permit is known as the “FMT” and is easily obtainable either on your airline flight, or at your point of entry. You are allowed to remain for 90 days with your permit renewable for a maximum of 180 days. Longer term business people, and extended time travelers, may qualify for a Visitors Permit which can be issued for up to one year. These are renewable four times, each with a maximum of one year, for a grand total of five years, but are not easily obtained unless a company or organization is willing to vouchsafe your presence.
