Can you bring fresh fruit or produce to Mexico?

• Fresh produce & plants

  prohibited

  SENASICA's traveler-facing prohibited list includes fresh fruits and vegetables, cut flowers/plants/in-vitro plantlets, fresh foliage, propagative material (seeds, bulbs, cuttings, buds), grains/seeds (corn, beans, rice, quinoa, wheat, sesame, sunflower), green coffee and green tobacco, and fresh chestnuts, unless accompanied by the required phytosanitary documentation — which is not realistically available to an ordinary tourist. Soil/earth is prohibited outright with no exception. The list is explicitly stated as illustrative, not exhaustive.
