Question

How to get a permit to take a car to Mexico?

Answer 1

After you cross the border (usually about a mile inland) there is a place you get the permiso.  Ask at the border and they will tell you.  Also be prepared and have a visa- they charge you a fee so that you bring the car out, if it is paid for you need to take the title with you, if not you have to have a paper from the lender.  Don't forget about getting insurance on the other side- your insurance usually only covers you a couple miles across the border.  Good luck- I just got home from there in the last hour- they still drive like friggin maniacs!!!

Answer 5

You don't need one in Baja or within the 21km limit along the border.  Usually at km21 there is an immigration station with an office for auto permits along with your tourist permit

1: Valid proof of citizenship (passport or birth certificate).

2: Your Tourist Card or Tourist Visa.

3: The valid vehicle registration certificate, or original title that certifies the legal ownership of the vehicle. The person whose name is listed on the registration must be present. (If the registered owner is not going to be present, you must contact the Mexican Consulate in advance for details on how to obtain the permit).

4: If the vehicle is financed, you should contact your finance company to receive a 'Letter of Authorization' allowing you to drive your vehicle into Mexico.

5: If the vehicle is leased or rented, you must provide the lease or rental contract with the driver's name on the contract.

6: A valid Driver's License (a Non-Mexican driver's license).

7: An international credit card, (American Express, Diner's Club, Mastercard or Visa), in the name of the driver of the vehicle. (If you do not have a credit card, you can also make a cash deposit).
