Frequently Asked Questions
No, you cannot go to Mexico from the U.S. without a passport or passport card, which is required of all U.S. citizens, unless you’re staying within the Mexican border zone (within 20–30 kilometers of the border).
Other WHTI-compliant documents are accepted when U.S. citizens are returning from Mexico by land. For U.S. citizens age 15 and younger, an original or copy of a birth certificate, a Consular Report of Birth Abroad, or a Naturalization Certificate also work for land travel. Because passports or passport cards are required for entering Mexico, however, you might as well use the same document in both directions.
If you’re planning on traveling to Mexico with children, you may also need to bring proof of custody. If you’re traveling with children for whom you don’t have full legal custody, you should carry a notarized affidavit of consent from the child’s parents.
