green bay wi Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 I will be flying out of GDL for the first time since obtaining my Temporal Residente Visa. Can someone tell me what I need to do at GDL and where I need to go before checking in for my flight? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Saltos Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 You need to complete the form FMM and give it to the INM office at the airport. Be sure to write Residente Temoral at the top of each part of the form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 The writing of Residente Temporal on the top of both forms is less (not) a Mexican government requirement but more to keep an unknowing or non-diligent Immigration agent upon return from mistakenly marking your FMM as a Tourist and thus negating your Temporal visa standing. Same for Permanente. To help with this ‘awareness’ it is always suggested that one hand the Agent your Temporal card first and then hand them the FMM form. Then watch.

Yo1 Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 You check out with INM to the right of the last airline check in desks. Fill out the form and hand it to the INM guy with your passport. Make sure it is marked across the top of each half of the form Residente Temporal or Permanente. Take that with you to check in at your airline. Either there or as you board the plane 1/2 the form goes to the airline official. When you return to Mexico, hand your visa and then your FMM form and passport to the INM officer. Make sure they mark you as a Residente and not a Tourist. DO NOT fill out the INM form given to you one the plane. The FMM form you have is in place of the one they try to give you on the plane--very important!

AlanMexicali Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Odd that no one mentioned or didn´t noticed that when you give the INM official when entering Mexico your Mx. Resident visa/card and passport they always hold, in my case a US passport card, under a separate barcode scanner, look at their screen, look at my face and hand it back to me. Then they hold my Residente Permanente card under a different barcode scanner, look at the screen, hit a few keyboard keys and hand it back to me and say thank you. It usually takes about a minute.

Technically this is true, but the INM officials at the airport have told me it doesn't matter if the FMM you hand in when entering is the other half of the one you used to fly out, or a new one you got on the plane. Note- this is not a rumor, it was told to me by the INM agents at PV airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TelsZ4 Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 I have allways used the one I was given on the plane The last time I flew out of Guad the INM agent at the booth said don't bother filling in the top half.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only trying to warn folks that if they have filled out a FMM and still have one part of it to turn in when they return to Mexico, DON'T fill out a new one (unless of course you mark across the top your visa status).

PULELEHUA Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 In addition to writing in your Res. Perm or Res Temp at the top of the form, be sure to mark the purpose for returning to Mexico as "other" -- nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
