Joyfull Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 When flying thru Mexico City out of GDL, where do you get your immigration card stamped. My husband is flying out to the U.S. in about a week. We have never connected in MEX. Flying Aero Mexico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geeser Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 It would be easier to get it stamped right at the airport in GDL than on connecting in DF. You might wind up with a close connection in DF. Here the INM guy is located just outside the international exit in a booth or if you are too early just knock on the door passengers come out and get someone.

That will make it easy. Does the AM agent in Mexico City take the csrd then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Saltos Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 The airline takes the card at the boarding gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canmex87 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Its our understanding that the Immigration document must be stamped at the departing airport. There are two terminals in Mexico City airport and a location in each terminal for the IMN location to have your document stamped. They are difficult to locate and the easiest way is to ask for directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Cartero Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I have done this many times. For a couple of years I submitted the card in DF, decided that was a pain and started doing it here in GDL. My feeling was it was the origin of my departure. Bottom line, never have had a problem doing it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francine59 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I fly 8 to 10 times a year for work and have never had a problem taking care of everything in Guad. IMS in Mexico City is a challenge to find so agree with other poster. Make it easy on yourself and enjoy your flight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floradude Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I would never take the chance and always get stamped out at Mexico City (if that is the city from which I am departing Mexico). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danjames56 Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 i tried to stamp it in gel and they told me I have to do it in Mex city. In mex city at terminal 1 the immigration is inside right next to the big duty free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Last time I went via Mexico City it was difficult to find the place to get the stamp. When finally I did there was no one there. It was just a desk sitting out in the middle of nowhere. When I tried to check in they sent me back to immigration at this desk. It was along way back so they had to hold the plane for me.

kbleitch Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Just flew to Florida (FLL) on Volaris from GDL via MEX last night / today. We had a layover of six hours overnight in Mexico City. We went to the immigration window at GDL last evening before checking in at the Volaris counter. The chica at the window said that if you have a resident visa, either temporal or permanente, they can stamp your FMM form in GDL and then you just surrender the bottom part when you board your flight exiting Mexico in MEX. She said they didn't used to do it, but now they do. Way easier than finding the place in MEX. Interesting side note: because we were "connecting" through MEX and our checked bags were checked all the way through from GDL to FLL, our bags had a sticker that they were inspected in MEX while they were setting there for six hours. And we also were thoroughly reviewed this morning at the gate before we boarded the flight from MEX to FLL, after we had gone through the normal security check to enter the secure gate areas. They went through every pocket of our carry-ons, requested we remove belts and shoes, show them the bottoms of our feet, and get fully frisked!!! By the time we got on the plane, we felt VERY secure!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
