Mexico Tourist Card & Entry Information

Traveling to Cancun, Mexico? Entry procedures have changed in recent years, and travelers arriving by air generally no longer need to complete the traditional paper Forma Migratoria Múltiple (FMM), commonly known as the Mexico Tourist Card.

For international air arrivals, Mexico’s Instituto Nacional de Migración (INM) processes immigration information electronically. Travelers should present a valid passport and any visa or other entry documentation required for their nationality. The immigration officer determines the authorized period of stay in Mexico.
