For tourism stays of up to 180 days, citizens of the US, Canada, UK, EU countries, Australia, and many other nations do not require a visa. Your passport must be valid for the duration of your stay, though we recommend at least six months validity to avoid any potential issues.
As of 2025, Mexico has eliminated the FMM (Forma Migratoria Multiple) tourist card requirement at many major airports, including Cancun, Mexico City, Puerto Vallarta, Los Cabos, Tulum, and Mazatlan. At these airports, your entry is processed electronically.
All foreign visitors who are not Mexican residents must present a return or outbound ticket when entering Mexico. Keep your departure documentation easily accessible when arriving at immigration.
