FM 3, FM 2
MEXICAN VISAS

Foreigners doing business or buying real estate in Mexico are required to comply with Mexican Immigration laws and obtain the appropriate visa to visit Mexico.
In general a foreigner can hold one of two types of visas:

* Resident seeking visa FM-2 visa
* Non-resident seeking visa FM-3 visa
(These type of visas include both temporary tourist and business visas)

Different types of visas allow foreigners to perform different activities in Mexico. Every foreigner must secure prior authorization from the Mexican immigration authorities to perform any activities that will generate compensation for him/her in Mexico.

The authorization for an FM-3 visa is for a period of one year (renewable for one year periods). These visas do not lead to permanent residency.

The authorization for an FM-2 visa is for a period of one year, renewable for three aditional years with the possibility of acquiring resident status after the fourth year.
