What is a Mexico Visa and Why You Need one?

The Mexican visa is an official travel authorization issued by the Government of Mexico, which allows foreign nationals to visit Mexico for tourism, business or family purposes. Residents of the United Arab Emirates who do not qualify for a visa exemption (refer to the section below) are required to obtain a visa before traveling.

Mexican Visa Exemption: Can I Travel Without a Visa?

You may be exempted from the requirement of obtaining a separate Mexican visa if you are a resident of the United Arab Emirates with valid passport and one of the following documents:

• A valid, multiple entry visa from the United States of America (USA).
• A valid, multiple-entry visa from a Schengen area country (Europe).
• A valid multiple entry visa from Canada.
• A valid and multiple-entry visa from the United Kingdom (UK).

Permanent residence status in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Schengen area, Japan, or Chile.

If you have one of these documents, you can enter Mexico for a maximum of 180 days for tourism or business purposes. In the absence of one of the documents mentioned, a Mexican visa is required.
