Passport requirements for Mexico

For those that thought that they could delay getting a passport as they were still able to travel to Mexico with only government issued ID..........think again.

Valid Passport Required for Entry into Mexico.

The Mexican government has announced that American and Canadian passengers flying into Mexico will be required to show a valid passport as of March 1, 2010.  This measure harmonizes Mexican border control policy with that of Canada and the US under the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI).

For travel outside of Canada a valid passport is now required everywhere including the United States.  Canadians can access more information and application forms online at Foreign Affairs - Govenment of Canada website  http://www.voyage.gc.ca/preparation_information/passport_passeport-eng.asp .  or contact your travel consultant.   This website also provides excellent information on up to date travel advisories and travel information throughout the world.
