Concierge service for Mexican Residency via Regularization. You hire My Latin Life; local immigration specialists (and licensed counsel where required) file on your behalf. The deliverable: a completed filing or account setup — not advice-only — not advice, not a DIY packet.
Mexican Regularization
Mexico’s Regularization program is still active in 2026 — but it can change without warning. If you entered Mexico irregularly and have at least one documented entry between 2015 and 2022, you may be eligible to regularize your status and obtain a 4-year temporary residency.
This is a rare second-chance program. Most countries don’t offer this. If you qualify, act now.

Who Qualifies
This program is specifically for foreigners who:
- Are currently irregular in Mexico (overstayed or entered without documentation)
- Have at least one documented entry into Mexico between 2015 and 2022
If you meet these criteria, you can regularize your status regardless of how long you’ve been in Mexico.
What You Get
- 4-year temporary residency card
- CURP — Mexico’s Unique Population Registry Code, required for most formal activities in Mexico
- Path to a work permit — independently via RFC registration or through a registered company
- Path to permanent residency — apply 30 days before your 4-year card expires
Requirements
- Original passport and copy
- Proof of address in Mexico (electricity or water bill)
- Expired tourist visa or entry documentation
- Evidence of economic solvency
Logistics
The process takes place in Quintana Roo. Plan for a 2–3 week resolution period. MLL handles all appointments and paperwork with INM (National Immigration Institute).
What You Receive
- A 4-year temporary residency card — legal status in Mexico
- CURP — your Mexican population registry code
- A documented path to a work permit — via RFC registration or a registered company, a separate future step
- A documented path to permanent residency — eligible 30 days before your 4-year card expires
What MLL Does
- Assesses your eligibility, including your documented entry between 2015 and 2022
- Prepares your document package — passport, proof of address, entry documentation, solvency evidence
- Manages overstay fine calculation and payment as part of the process
- Handles all appointments and paperwork with INM in Quintana Roo
- Guides you toward work authorization and permanent residency as next steps
MLL is not advisory-only here. Compared to navigating INM’s regularization process and overstay fine calculations yourself, you get eligibility assessment, document prep, and full appointment handling for one fee.

Who This Service Is Not For
- Anyone without a documented entry between 2015 and 2022 — this is the core eligibility requirement; without it, this specific program does not apply. Book a call to discuss alternative documentation or other Mexico residency paths.
- Anyone expecting immediate work authorization — the initial 4-year residency does not include a work permit; that’s a separate follow-on step via RFC or a registered company.
- Anyone unwilling to travel to Quintana Roo — the process takes place there specifically, regardless of where in Mexico you currently are.
After You Purchase
- Confirmation email — receipt and a document checklist within 1 business day.
- Eligibility review — MLL confirms your documented entry and overstay situation.
- Document preparation — passport, proof of address, and entry documentation are assembled.
- INM filing in Quintana Roo — MLL manages appointments and paperwork, including any overstay fines.
- Delivery — your 4-year temporary residency card and CURP are issued, typically within 2–3 weeks.
Total Cost Overview
| Cost Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| MLL service fee (eligibility assessment, document prep, INM appointment handling) | See checkout |
| Overstay fines | Calculated based on your length of overstay, paid to INM — not to MLL; MLL confirms your estimated amount during onboarding |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mexican regularization and who needs it?
Regularization is the process of obtaining legal immigration status in Mexico for people who entered on a tourist permit but stayed beyond the allowed period or overstayed their visa. It allows you to obtain legal residency without leaving the country.
What if I don’t have documentation of my original entry?
Book a call to discuss your specific situation. In some cases alternative documentation can be used. MLL assesses eligibility before you proceed.
Will there be fines for overstaying my visa?
Yes, overstaying typically results in fines calculated based on how long you’ve exceeded your permitted stay. Paying these fines is part of the regularization process.
How much does this cost, all-in?
See checkout for the full MLL service — eligibility assessment, document preparation, and INM appointment handling. Overstay fines are separate and calculated based on your specific situation.
What happens after the 4 years?
You can apply for permanent residency 30 days before your temporary card expires. Permanent residency has no renewal requirement and opens the path to Mexican citizenship after 5 years total residency.
Can I work with this residency?
The initial 4-year residency does not include a work permit, but you can obtain one independently via RFC registration or through a registered company. MLL can assist with this next step.
