- Good to know
- India is on INM's list of countries whose nationals need a visa to visit Mexico; for tourism or business, apply at a Mexican consulate for a visitor visa without permission for paid activities. INM accepts instead: a valid visa from Canada, the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom or a Schengen country; permanent residence in one of those or in Chile, Colombia or Peru; or an APEC Business Travel Card approved by Mexico (air, business only). The stay can't exceed 180 days.
