Immigration officials at the Cancun and Guadalajara airports have been requiring some travelers to complete an electronic Multiple Immigration Form (FMM) when entering Mexico, instead of a paper FMM. If approved for entry, these foreign nationals will receive a stamp on their passport indicating the allowable period of stay in Mexico. Those entering with a Temporary Residence Visa for the first time will also receive a QR code upon submission of the electronic FMM, which they must present to the immigration officer and when completing the registration process in Mexico. The measure is part of a pilot program to promote digitalization and expedite the immigration process at Mexican airports. Travelers entering Mexico should follow immigration officials’ instructions. Please contact your Fragomen representative for case-specific advice if you plan to enter Mexico through the Cancun or Guadalajara airports.
