Getting into Mexico?

[RastaPope]

Anyone know what sort of paperwork one needs when driving into Mexico? Just a license? Or a passport?

You'll likely need either a passport or an original birth certificate and a picture ID.

the getting in is the easy part...it's the getting out that's tough

Forget getting into Mexico, just make sure you have whatever it takes to get back OUT of Mexico!!
Usually a passport and driver's license will be more than enough.

You need to know what is illegal before you go and get car insurance for Mexico. We had a man from our town spent 180 days and don't know how much $ to get him out all because he had some ammunition in his truck.

At the border, photo ID.

Flying into airports further south, I prefer to have my passport.

It's an open border. Most people are just asked their citizenship upon returning, if you ran into a hard ass, your home drivers license should do.

If you have a nice car, don't take it to Mexico! Rent a car and pay for the insurance!

How far down are you going?

I moved to San Diego last fall, and have driven into Mexico many times and never had a problem. Yes, a Driver's license is absolutely necessary but also bring your passport in case of a snafu.

If on the weekend be ready for long long lines back to the US
