Tourist Visa Form

After having to postpone our trip two years in a row, we are happy to be coming back to the area for another visit. We have been away too long . We will be there for the month of June this time (we never come back at the same time of the year), mostly because that was the only month we could do it.

My question is, the tourist/transient visa form, typically in Spanish when you get it on the plane, is there an English translation to assist Spanish challenged travelers in filling out the Spanish form?

We are excited about the trip and looking forward to see our acquaintances from prior trips, and making new friends.

All the forms you receive on an airplane are bilingual. (I think.)

3 years ago it wasn't. There was an English translation posted on the wall of the GDL airport. It just takes awhile to fill it out at the airport. I would like to have it already filled out so we do not have to waste time getting through customs.

Also, I found the Mexico web site where I can download it 30 days in advance. It will be in Spanish but I will have time to translate it before we leave.

I have been on flights that offer both a Spanish and an English version. The newer blanks I have here at home are bilingual.

RoyD can you provide that link, please. I always try to graab a few when I can, but it's not always easy. Much simpler to fill it out at home.

When we flew into Guadalajara on American Airlines 2 weeks ago, they didn't have any forms to give out. Most passengers didn't have pens etc. so there was quite a delay filling out the forms at the airport. Luckily, we hade forms that we had picked up when leaving Mexico.

I haven't used these online application pages but.... here they are:

Thanks, bbut it looks like it's only for tourists.

Isn't that what the OP asked about ?

Yep, but the hard copy forms cover everyone. In any case, I sent the link to my family who are coming to visit.

Here it is. Yes, it is the FMM card for tourists.

I just explored the webpage and went to the "Customs" tab. You can download the 2 part form that Mexico customs need and fill it out as well.

Save even more time....

I did not notice that. Solves the whole problem.

Thanks.

and, presumably, we residentes can do that as well.
