Have Anything But An FMM Tourist Card? GET YOUR FOREIGN CAR OUT OF MEX by mexbungalows
New Aduana law. Only FMM holders can get a car permit. Older FM-3 now RESIDENTE PERMANENTE permit holders must get their foreign registered car OUT OF MEXICO. NOW. Local aduana offices can issue you a special permit to get the car out of Mexico. ...

Check with Aduana. That's what I suggested going in. The "law" was just changed. And those gringos with cars here "for many years" have to remove them. Again, check with Aduana. Or ask at a SSP puesto de control. The old FM-3 holders have to get a ... Read More

What is the DIFFERENCE if the car MUST leave Mexico before 180 days? Maybe I should have said foreign plated cars cannot stay in Mexico longer than 180-days. Rentista Permanente de Grado Cinco Estrellas de Oro, it does not matter. 181 days later the ... Read More

Oh man, please take the following opinions seriously. Go to your nearest office of ADUANA and "fess up". Do not drive the car, it can be impounded and you will never see it again. There is going to be a fine which will be paid at a local bank. ... Read More


Paying your CFE bill by 49ersFan
I am looking for some guidance from some °µÍø½ûÇøs with respect to paying my CFE bill. I don´t have a Mexican bank account, so online banking is not an option. Oxxo and other authorized pay locations can only accept payments if you have your most ...

When they come around with the red plastic tag and block off the mediador you can't pay the bill at an Oxxo or POS either. I also found out when I was in hospital that CFE will cut some slack as to the cutoff date if you phone them in advance. I've ... Read More

Once upon a time a person could stay in Mexico longer than 180 days with a foreign registered car, specifically a non Mexico car that had valid Mexican nacional plates. Those days are over. If the SSP or PFP catches anyone in Mexico without a ... Read More

WTF? I just paid my Luz at a grocery store, and it lists SOMEONE ELSE'S NAME as the principal on the bill. I paid with a USA Wells Fargo card, at a POS (point of sale) machine. Someone is feeding you a load of crap. Read More

Moving to Ensenada by nikkip
Hello, Can you advise me as to how safe it is to move to live to Ensenada, Mexico. I've been there a couple of times for vacation, and I really liked it, but I am not sure about living there. We have a baby, and I was worried if there are any risks ...

Mothers normally do not need lectures about how to go about ensuring the safety of their children. Ensenada is a city of 300,000 souls and should be treated like it is a city. But there isn't some pervasive ideology in Mexico about kidnapping ... Read More

Hi, Care to share a name of a "logistics company" who can import, pay duty, and then send them on their way with ESTAFETA? The "Customs Brokers" I talked with in San Ysidro, and Mexicali, said "Ni Modo Señor!" for Rx medications. And a whole host ... Read More

For ANYTHING other than a temporary FMM 180-day permit you must apply to a Mexican consulate verified proof of income of -at least- $2,000.00 month, They just changed the law and it is strict and unfortunately this is verified and correct info. Read More
