RV Starlink in Mexico
Been researching buying the Starlink RV system in BCS. We have property in Bahía Asunción through a Fideicomiso, and travel quite a bit around the
peninsula. One forum states that I’ll need a RFC or a CURP (which would further require a Permanent Resident Status). Any updated info would be
appreciated.
Two dirt roads diverged in Baja and I, I took the one less graveled by......

A friend from Colorado drives a Class A RV to Mulege every winter with an FMM. He bought Mexico RV Starlink while in Mulege and had the equipment
delivered to a local restaurant.

Ditto Chippy. Had mine delivered to Ensenada and took it down to Bahia. Used it there for 5 months and now I'm using it in San Diego. One more month
and then taking back to BoLA. No questions asked.
Off grid, 12-190 watt evergreen solar panels on solar trackers, 2-3648 stacked Outback inverters, 610ah LiFePo4 48v battery bank, FM 60 and MX60
Outback charge controllers, X-240 Outback transformer for 240v from inverters, 6500 watt Kubota diesel generator.

The shipping address is the trickiest part of the process. First you have to figure out where to ship, then it has to be in the right format to fit
Starlink's data system. I remember one mistake that had me stumped for hours and kept rejecting my information was I was using BCS for the state
instead of BS.
My neighbors who travel on tourist visas got Starlink for their houses in Mx with no problem. We are off grid and used my nephew's town address for
shipping. For the install address we used the Google Plus location. You won't need that for RV Starlink I assume.
I applied some time ago and waited several months for delivery. Once I got mine the neighbors applied and got theirs shipped within two weeks. I think
the skids on the system are well greased now.
Good luck! It works great!
No b-tchin\' in the Baja.

Starlink Roaming (RV) Rules
As I understand them, roaming starlink customers can use the system outside their registered country for two months, after which they must register in
the new country. I'm sure that a US starlink customer would not be forced to re-register in Mexico and pay half-price in pesos, but what about the
other way around? Has anyone with a roaming (not global roaming) contract encountered a problem using the system in another country that the one it
was registered in? larryC mentions using a Mexico system in San Diego for at least two months, if not more.
