Overview
INM explains that citizens of Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua use CA-4 free-mobility documents, while other nationalities normally enter with a passport valid for at least six months and must check the tourist visa category that applies. The consular visa checklist includes a completed visa request, passport copy, bank and employment evidence, invitation letter where relevant, residence evidence if held abroad, two photographs and contact details. INM lists a USD 30 single visa for 30 days and a USD 60 multiple visa for 90 days, while warning that a visa does not guarantee admission because migration and customs officers decide at the port of entry.
