US citizens returning from Mexico: What to know before crossing home

πŸ‡²πŸ‡½ Mexico β†’ πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ United States

Short answer

US citizens returning from Mexico must present a valid US passport. If traveling with a spouse on a CR-1/IR-1 visa, ensure the visa is valid and all required documents are ready for inspection. There are no specific fees for re-entry, but customs duties may apply for goods. Processing times can vary. Always verify current rules on official government or embassy sites as requirements may change.
