Important Reminder: Passports Required for Mexico

Starting January 8, 2007, all U.S. citizens (including children) traveling to Mexico by air will be required to have a valid passport prior to travel. The new regulation is part of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative and is part of the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act.

The goal of the change is to improve border security and facilitate re-entry into the U.S. for all citizens.

In the past, Americans needed only a driver’s license and birth certificate to go back and forth between the U.S. and Mexico and most Caribbean islands. Children needed just birth certificates. As of January 8, however, passports will be required for almost everyone entering the U.S. through airports, no matter where they are coming from.

If you are traveling out of the country (to the Riviera Maya or anywhere else in Mexico) and returning to the U.S. any time after January 8, 2007, you must have a passport.
