🇲🇽Mexico🇸🇧Solomon IslandsMX-SB Mexico to Solomon Islands visa requirements
Yes, Mexican passport holders need a visa to visit the Solomon Islands. Mexico is NOT on the Solomon Islands' visa-exemption list nor on its 42-country free "visitor permit on arrival" list, so a Mexican tourist must obtain a Visitor (Tourist) Visa with prior approval from the Director of Immigration before traveling. The visa can be applied for online (USD 50) or via standard application (USD 100). A Mexican ordinary passport holder requires a visa to enter the Solomon Islands for tourism. The Solomon Islands grants outright visa exemption only to a small number of countries/official-passport holders (e.g., PRC, and EU/UAE/India/Indonesia official-passport holders) and allows a free 3-month "visitor permit on arrival" to citizens of about 42 listed countries and territories (including the USA, Canada, UK, Australia, NZ, Japan, Brazil, Argentina and most Pacific nations). Mexico appears on neither list. Under the Immigration Act, nationals of non-listed countries must obtain prior authorization from the Director of Immigration; in practice this means securing a Visitor Visa approval before boarding. The Solomon Islands Immigration Division now accepts visitor-visa applications online (USD 50) as well as by standard lodgement (USD 100). A visitor permit allows stays not exceeding three months in any 12-month period. Although the law references an "on arrival" permit and immigration occasionally issues a 30-day visa on arrival, this is discretionary and not guaranteed for Mexicans, so the conservative and accurate verdict is visa-required: arrange approval in advance. Passport must be valid 6 months beyond travel, with a confirmed return/onward ticket and proof of funds.
