lots and lots of toilet paper
A suitcase, passport and you with the body.
by the way take some money too
BYOW……bring your own water
You need nothing. Just do what the wet backs do. Walk across the border illegally.
Maybe Mexico will give you fre medical care and a job and help find you an apartment. They can even fix you up with fake Mexican Identification Cards.
as far as i know, all you need is your birth certificate and a valid u.s. /state I.D. at least until the end of the year when they revise the Passport regulations
i would take my id make sure you keap it in a safe place you dont want it stolen and usa cash works a lot better than mexicos curincy i would bring some watter are just make sure before you drink there ice are drinks that they have bottled watter other wise you will get realy sick im not sure but i think there has alsow ben a lot of kidnappings around there lately so go with a group of people to be safe and have some fun its great
Go to delta.com, and use their Visa & Passport Tool. It will tell you exactly what you need to enter into Mexico.
It’s also important to note, if you are traveling with minor children to Mexico, additional papers are required.
In my case (I’m a citizen) I only need a drivers license. You may need your passport. I know we took my grandmother last month and she showed her residency card and U.S ID and we were OK. I have heard that they are going to start requiring passports at the first of the year. You may want to check with the homeland security to see what you will definitely need, its not something you want to guess on.
a .45, a machete, and plenty of small bills to bribe the policia.
Passports aren’t required until Dec 31, 2006. If you are traveling before then, here’s what you need:
US Citizen…you can use 1) passport, or 2) count or state issued birth certificate (not the pretty one from the hospital) with raised seal, or 3) voter’s registration card, or 40 naturalization cert..you need one of those PLUS a government issued photo ID like a driver’s license.
Mexican citizen traveling from US to Mexico, you need…1) passport (valid or expired), or 2) permanent resident/resident alien card (form I-551), or 3) matricula consular (may be expired), or 4) birth cert with consular registration
I work for an airline and this is what we are required to advise our customers. Hope this helps
Call the airlines and avoid all these stupid answers
You need to get one wherever you are a legal citizen.
