Kosovars to Apply Online for a Mexico Tourist Card
The electronic system has streamlined the entire online process. These three simple steps cover the entire online process:
Online Information Entry: Kosovans need to fill the application form online. They must ensure that the information is precise and correct. Any distortion or incorrect details will cause rejection of the document.
Zero Document Upload: When applying online, applicants need not submit softcopies of any document. They must, however, fill in a valid passport number for the culmination of the application process.
Fee: Finally, it’s time to pay the fee. This is done using a credit or debit card. The Tourist Card will soon be emailed to the applicant on the email id given in the form.
To be independent of the email system, travelers must download and print the travel document, if they have the choice.
Hard copies of both sides of the Mexico Tourist Card must be kept by the travelers during their stay in the country. They will be inspected by the immigration officers at the airport.
For Applicants to Keep in Mind
Mexico Tourist Card allows only tourism visits. It disallows engaging in any kind of employment or activity that results in payment during this visit. Kosovars must keep printouts of this travel document safely when they enter the country through any Mexican airport. The online application requires tourists to provide details (Airline Name and Flight Number) of their arrival flight in Mexico.
Upload Softcopies – Yes/No
The online system requires no document submission. Travelers from Kosovo, when applying for a Mexico Tourist Card, must be having the following:
- A passport having 180-day validity since their arrival in Mexico.
- Their landing flight details such as airline name and flight number
Landing in Mexico
For entry into Mexico, Kosovars will need a Mexico Tourist Card, a visa and a valid passport. The passport validity should not be less than 6 months and also must be the same one used to apply for the visa. The immigration officials at the Mexico Airport will check these three documents.
