Visiting or returning to Mexico? What you can carry in your suitcase (without paying taxes)

If you come to visit Mexico or return from abroad, remember that to avoid confiscation or payment of taxes for surplus merchandise at Mexican customs, you must not exceed the limits established by the Tax Administration Service (SAT). The value of merchandise in addition to your personal baggage is called "excess". Taxes are not charged on this value. Until next April 11, the franchise per person will be 500 dollars for Mexicans arriving by land. Usually it is 300 dollars, but during vacation times it increases. For foreigners arriving by land, the excess is 300 dollars. By plane or sea it is 500 dollars.

To determine your franchise, consider that personal luggage (non-taxable) includes clothing, footwear, toiletries and beauty products, according to the duration of the trip and two cameras or video recording. Each person can also carry two personal sports equipment, three cell phones, a lap top, five toys, a video game console, five video games and up to three companion pets such as dogs, cats, canaries, guinea pigs, ferrets, parakeets, small birds. Passengers over 18 years of age can bring a maximum 10 packs of cigarettes, 25 cigars or 200 grams of tobacco; three liters of alcoholic beverages and six liters of wine.

1Everything that is not on this list will enter your franchise, for example: baby clothes, two extra toys or a laptop that you bring as a gift (in addition to yours).

"In the event that the value of the merchandise exceeds the franchise, the excess can be paid by credit or debit card. The franchise to which each member of the family is entitled can be accumulated if they travel in the same means of transport, except if they are residents of the strip or border region," reported the SAT. What you pay is a rate of 16 percent on the value of the excess product. The franchise is not applicable for alcoholic beverages or tobacco, so you should not bring more than three liters of liquor, for example, or it will be confiscated. If you get a green traffic light, but the authority detects something suspicious in your luggage or abnormal behavior, they can check your suitcase. 60 days in advance. You can cancel it at any Mexican border customs office. Nuevo Laredo, Puerto Vallarta, Los Cabos, Cancun and the Mexico City International Airport are the points of entry into the country with the highest influx of Mexicans and foreigners on these vacations. Here operations were reinforced with personnel from the General Customs Administration (AGA), in charge of the SAT. RECOMMENDATIONS -Porta proof of payment.-Declare if you bring cash or documents receivable, which together exceed 10 thousand dollars. Carrying them is not a crime, but not declaring them is.-Food, plants, seeds, weapons and drugs are prohibited.-Avoid bringing products or handicrafts made with the skin of exotic or endangered animals.
