Propane Regulator from the US on Mexican Propane Tank?

I'm putting in a new propane system at my house and my contractor is asking for me to bring a propane regulator down from the U.S. to accommodate all my appliances. Do U.S. regulators work on the large stationary Mexican LPG tanks we use in Baja?

They are fine.

Yes, I just bought one off Amazon a few months back for roommate's place. She has dual 30 Kg tanks.

This what I bought, I recall the brand name, Marshall:

With the indicator thing on top! Does that even work?

This one even has a bracket for wall mounting!!! Someone at Marshall finally figured out where their regulators actually end up, and it's not in RV's.

every hardware store in Mexico sells regulators...they seem to work fine.
