Do I need a visa to visit Mexico with a South Africa passport?
Visa required
Key entry notes
Travellers who wish to visit Mexico (regardless of their nationality or itinerary), holding either a valid, multiple entry visa OR who are permanent residents of the United States, Canada, Japan, the United Kingdom or the EU Schengen Space countries, DO NOT require a Mexican tourist visa.
Dependent upon the immigration officer, the maximum period of stay authorised is 180 days at a time.
Passport holders with less than six months validity may face difficulty when attempting to enter as a Business Visitor/ Tourist as they are usually permitted six months stay which might exceed the passport's validity.
