Mexican banknotes

The National Migration Institute (IMN) has updated Mexican immigration fees for 2025. For your convenience, below we have translated 2025’s fees for the most frequent procedures. Remember that some immigration procedures incur two or three fees, and others, just one. That is, the paperwork can have a cost, as can the issue of a document, and in some cases a fine may apply. Therefore, double-check at your local immigration office or with your facilitator, for your specific case.

Documentation

Immigration procedures usually require official documentation and proof of identity. Therefore, make sure to prepare well in advance. Indeed, documents may require translation or apostillization. If you apply from outside Mexico, this blog might also help: Documents you need to bring with you when you move to Mexico.

Finally, check our articles on permanent and temporary residency, and regularization for more advice. At Immigration to Mexico, we guide you through every step of the process. We make your immigration journey as easy and stress-free as possible.
