Mexico to Niger visa requirements

Yes, a Mexican ordinary passport holder needs a visa to enter Niger. Mexico is not on Niger's visa-exempt list, so a tourist visa must be obtained in advance from a Nigerien embassy or consulate before travel. There is no visa-on-arrival for Mexican tourists (only a limited pre-approved "flyer visa" exists), and Niger's official eVisa portal is still being rolled out and is not a reliable channel yet. Niger (a West African, non-Schengen country) requires Mexican ordinary passport holders to hold a tourist visa before arrival. Visa-free entry is limited mainly to ECOWAS members plus a short list of countries (Burkina Faso, Chad, Hong Kong, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Tunisia) — Mexico is not included. Tourist visas are typically single-entry, valid for up to 90 days from issue with a stay of around 30 days, and must be applied for at a Nigerien diplomatic mission. Because there is no Niger embassy in Mexico, Mexican travelers normally apply through an accredited Nigerien mission abroad (for example in the United States or France) or via an authorized visa service. Fees are roughly USD 100-160 single-entry, with processing of about 8-15 business days. A government eVisa portal operated by the Ministry of Interior (DST) exists but remains in development and is not yet a dependable route. Given conflicting source detail and the absence of any confirmed no-visa channel for Mexicans, the conservative and correct verdict is visa-required. Travelers should also note serious security advisories warning against travel to Niger.
