Mexican temporary/ permanent /car Posted by Loulou on March 29, 2023, 6:17 pm Hola dear community! Does anyone have the answer to this one. Does a Mexican resident’s to bring a car from another country here in Mexico (Canada or US)? Or do we lose the privilege? Gracias in advance 😊

Re: Mexican temporary/ permanent /car Posted by Spencer on March 30, 2023, 2:10 pm, in reply to "Mexican temporary/ permanent /car" Hi LouLou, the way we understand it, you can still bring a car in on a “TIP” for the length of your temporary residency permit, but you can’t if you’re on a permanent residency permit.

Re: Mexican temporary/ permanent /car Posted by matias on March 30, 2023, 6:34 pm, in reply to "Re: Mexican temporary/ permanent /car" I understand is that if you are bringing a car from the outside, you can “Mexicanize” it, but it is usually a fairly complicated, fairly lengthy, fairly expensive procedure. Mexico City state is known for being the easiest place to “Mexicanize” your car ;-) A + Matias

The vehicle will remain legal in Mexico for so long as the TIP remains current. For details about residency permits, see our Mexico Immigration page.
