MMSI for VHF radio in Baja

Buying a boat in Baja, and just got a new VHF radio. Says it requires a MMSI number to enable the DSC function. Can that number be obtained down there, or here in the US, before we head down?

you can get it online thru BoatUS, and several other vendors.

I looked it up, seems to be for US waters only?
