Documents checklist

Prepare these documents before your appointment. The lists are taken from official Mexican sources:

Renewing a Mexican passport abroad (adults)

• Book an appointment via MiConsulado (WhatsApp/phone) or citas.sre.gob.mx – some consulates also accept walk-ins
• The passport you are renewing (or the theft/loss report from the local authorities)
• Application form and payment according to the validity chosen (3, 6 or 10 years for adults abroad)
• Older passports may require proof of nationality and identity again (e.g. INE voter card, matrícula consular)
• One-year passports and some old booklet types cannot be renewed – apply as a first passport
