  • Hola beautiful soul! In this video, I explain the process of renting a home in Merida, Mexico which is different than renting a home in other parts of Mexico.
    If you are moving to Merida and thinking about renting a home, watch this video first.

    Hi. May I ask if Merida is loud even in the middle of the night and early in the morning? Is the noise 24 hours a day or mainly in the day time and early night. What about between 10 or 11pm and 7AM?

    Hey you, long time no see 😉 you look gorgeous.
    We are moving mid June to Mérida.
    Very nervous about my pet transport. The flight from Europe is very long & there have allready been some challenges to have him cleared for South America. (i know technically Mexico is North America but for pet shipping they consider it as South). It's veryyy different than for US.
    Anyways I think i will use the services of Barbara. Do they also do recidency finalazation?
    Thank you ☺️

    The tourist card (FMM) will not allow you stay long term. Visitors are no longer granted the full 180 days by default. It can arbitrarily be any number of days from 3 days to 180 days. Residence permits are required for long term stays

      @theirstories There is a whole explanation on how to get this permit. Can't remember the name of UA-camrs explaining. But there are several UA-cam videos on this subject. The Mexican consulate is also a good start in major border towns (such as Del Rio TX; El Paso TX; Brownsville, TX; Laredo, TX; Nogales AZ; San Diego, etc) and in every major city in the U.S. (Denver, Portland, San Bernardino. Seattle, San Francisco, Phoenix, Tucson, Los Angeles, Miami, Houston, etc to name a few). Fewer in other countries.

      @anyone150 2 роки тому +1

      "Retire Life in Mexico NO BULL" and "Two Expats in Mexico" UA-cam channels have videos that best explain about these changes to the tourist visas (FMM) and the residency permits (which have always been there).
