Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Mexican passport?
Mexican citizenship is obtained by right of blood or land, through adoption, marriage, ancestry, state service, naturalization, or a passport of a Latin American or Iberian Peninsula country.

To obtain Mexican citizenship by naturalisation, one must have lived in the country for at least 5 years, passed the country’s language and history knowledge tests, and have no criminal record.

A Mexican passport by marriage can be obtained in 2 years or more. The couple will need to prove that their marriage is not fictitious.
Does Mexico recognize dual citizenship?

Mexicans who reside abroad retain property rights, access to a business registered in Mexico, and the unrestricted rights of inheritance.
Who can get Mexican citizenship by birthright?
