VISAS AND APPLICATIONS
Planning a move to Mexico? Whether it’s for retirement, work, or study, obtaining Mexican residency is essential for a smooth transition. With our knowledge and expertise, we’ll guide you through the immigration process, making your journey to Mexico as seamless as possible.
So, let’s get started!
1. See the options below and choose whether you want to do the whole application process with us at the ‘Residency Full Application‘, or the ‘Double Citizenship Application‘ button or just want us to support you through your self-application at the ‘Residency Assistance‘ button.
2. In either of the 2 options, a form will appear that you need to fill out with accurate information. This information will be used to apply with the Mexican government (So you’d better do it with accurate information to avoid your process being rejected)
3. After filling out the form, you will need to pay for the service. Then, you’ll receive a personalized contract in your email that states that we are representing you and that your application is in process.
4. In a meeting, both parties will verify that all the information on the contracts is accurate. If there are any mistakes or discrepancies, let us know so we can make the necessary changes.
5. Once you have verified the contracts, you will be added to a group chat with the Outbound agents. This chat will be used to supervise the process until you are settled in Mexico.
6. Outbound Mexico will prepare and submit your residency application to the appropriate Mexican authorities. We will keep you informed of the progress of your application and let you know if any additional information is needed.
