How much does it cost to bring a car from the US into mexico for a vacation (not to sell)?


Travel Info
My mother wants to visit me in mexico and she says it will cost $500 (USD) for the permit to bring her vehicle (light truck). is this accurate?

Travel Tips
it doesnt cost anything to drive across the border, but just make sure you get mexican insurance, american insurance doesnt cover anything there if you got in an accident.

No, not if she drives across the border in CA.
Dosen't cost anything, but you must purchase Mexican auto insurance because your auto insurance will not cover you while you are in Mexico.

Here are the official requirements for taking a car to Mexico for tourism purposes...

Please note: Mexican auto insurance for American tourists only gets you a translator to tell you how much you owe for the accident. Accidents are illegal in Mexico (no matter who is at fault)... As a foreigner, you are always at fault for any accident you are in.
Depends on where you live. If she has to register her car for the mainland it will cost about $45. Along the border or Baja it costs nothing. What does cost is auto insurance which would be stupid not to have

The $500 is if she sells it... If she is just visiting, she just needs a vehicle permit and pays a few bucks for it... can get it at the embassy in her city or at the border... I STRONGLY suggest to get insurance coverage for when in Mexico, it's come in REAL handy several times when I went...
