Taiwan (Chinese Taipei) to Mexico visa requirements

Taiwanese ordinary passport holders need a Mexican visitor visa for tourism, transit, business, or other unpaid stays up to 180 days unless they hold a qualifying substitute document accepted by Mexico. As of 2026-06-29, Mexico's office in Taiwan says citizens of Taiwan require a visa to travel to Mexico for tourism, transit, business, or any non-remunerated activity for a period not exceeding 180 days. The standard route is the Visitor Visa without permission to carry out paid activities, applied for by appointment and in person at the Mexican Trade Services Documentation and Cultural Office in Taipei. A separate Mexican visa is not required if the traveler holds one of Mexico's listed substitute documents: permanent residence in Canada, the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, a Schengen country, or Pacific Alliance members Chile, Colombia, or Peru; a valid multiple-entry visa issued by Canada, the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, or a Schengen country that remains valid for the entire stay in Mexico; or an APEC Business Traveler Card approved by Mexico. If none of those exceptions applies, there is no visa-on-arrival or Taiwan-facing eVisa shortcut in the checked official Taiwan guidance. The June 2026 Taiwan office visitor visa fee is NTD 1,771, appointments are free, fees are non-refundable, and passports may remain with the office until processing is complete, in some cases up to 10 working days. A Mexican visa allows travel to a Mexican port of entry but does not guarantee admission; INM decides entry and the authorized stay at the border. International airport arrivals generally use a digital/stamp entry record rather than carrying a paper FMM, while land arrivals still use the FMM process. The visitor/DNR/FMM fee is often included in airfare; when payable separately, the 2026 amount shown in the checked official source is MXN 983.
