FM3 Confusion


I did a search and come up with different answers.

Has anyone had a problem with not having their FM3 stamped entering and exiting Baja by car?

Thanks
Diane

I tried that a few years ago. The stampers thought it was kind of goofy. So I haven't done it since. Just when I fly. Three or four renewals later, nobody has said anything.

I'm steering clear of stamps, personally, and don't want my travel's noted.

F*ck it.

I've gone through the whole process now and have the inmigardo now. Only once did I get questioned at renewal and the guy was a temporary from Mexico City and had no idea of the problems getting it stamped going North. So they regular guys said not to worry about it.

If you drive north and plan on flying back .....

Absolutely you had better exit stamp that visa ....

Only seems to matter if you are flying ....
