Frequently asked questions
How long can I stay in Mexico on a tourist permit?
Mexico grants most nationalities a free tourist permit (FMM) for up to 180 days per entry. After 180 days you must exit. Many nomads do visa runs, but if you want to stay consistently or open a bank account, Mexico Temporary Residency is the most practical solution.
What is Mexico Temporary Residency?
Mexico's Temporary Residency (Residente Temporal) can provide a long-stay route for qualifying applicants. Economic-solvency thresholds vary by consulate: Mexico's 2026 San Diego consulate instructions, for example, list a US$75,950 monthly balance over twelve months or US$4,510 monthly income over six months. We check the consulate handling your application rather than promising a universal balance.
Can I open a Mexican bank account without residency?
Most major Mexican banks (BBVA, Santander, Banorte) require temporary or permanent residency and a Mexican RFC (tax ID) to open a personal bank account. Some digital banks (such as Nu Bank Mexico) may have lighter requirements. We coordinate bank account opening as part of the post-residency process.
Do I need to pay Mexican taxes as a nomad?
A Mexico residence permit or a simple 183-day count does not by itself settle tax residence. Mexico's Federal Fiscal Code considers a home in Mexico and, if you have a home abroad too, where your centre of vital interests lies. Consult a Mexican tax adviser about your facts before relocating.
