I Love Mexican Vacations
Vacations in Mexico remain one of the best travel deals available.
is it true I don’t need a passport to travel into mexico anymore?
Someone told me today that because of the effects of the new passport law on the Economy, they’re no longer requiring a passport/card to travel into Northern Mexico… is this true? If so, where can I get more info on what IS going to be required.
You need next to nothing to enter Mexico. The problem is returning to the U.S.A No changes were made to Mexican laws. they require ID and a birth certificate to get an F.M.T.
You can FLY with a Green Card.
You can get back into the states without the passport but one is required by law. In other words you will be warned and infomed an told to get a passport
If you look like Bin Laden or your name is Mohammed I sheetmadrawers you may have a long delay

You should check this rumor out with the ICE web site. If you take the word of someone on YA, you may wind up in Mexico and can’t get back into the U.S.

other than a close loop cruise, you have to have a passport to go to mexico this is what is on the government website…..All Americans traveling by air outside of the United States are required to present a passport or other valid travel document to re-enter the United States. This requirement was extended to sea travel (except closed-loop cruises), including ferry service, on June 1, 2009. Starting June 1, 2009, all travelers entering the U.S. by land, sea or air were required to present a Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) compliant document such as a passport or a passport card. While passport cards and enhanced driver’s license are sufficient for re-entry into the United States, they may not be accepted by the particular country you plan to visit; please be sure to check with your cruise line and countries of destination for any foreign entry requirements. U.S. legal permanent residents in possession of their I-551 Permanent Resident card may board flights to the United States from Mexico.

That is a totally unfounded rumor. You may be able to enter Mexico without a passport, but you definetly need one to return to the U.S.
