Tips
Staying
awhile?
Visitors
to the
northern
part of
Baja
California
for a stay
of 72
hours or
less do
not need
passports
of tourist
cards.
However,
if you
plan to
stay
longer or
to go
south of
Maneadero
(south of
Ensenada),
you should
obtain a
Tourist
Card.
Tourist
cards are
issued on
an
individual
basis,
regardless
of age.
You are
not
required
to have a
car permit
in Baja
California,
only on
the
mainland.
Proof of
ownership,
such as
title,
registration
or
notarized
bill of
sale is
required
in issuing
car
permits.
There
is no duty
on
purchases
made in
Mexico.
U.S.
Customs
permits
you to
bring back
merchandize
of $400
dollars
retail
value per
person
duty-free
per month,
if it is
for your
own use,
for your
immediate
family, or
for gifts
to
friends.
Anyone
over 21
can bring
back 1
quart of
liquor
every 30
days.
Leave
pets at
home. It's
easier! If
you insist
on
bringing
your dog,
you must
have a
veterinarian's
certificate
of good
health and
proof of
rabies
inoculation
dated
within the
past six
months.
