Confirm your document requirements

Entry requirements depend on citizenship, immigration status, and mode of travel. Check official Mexican entry guidance and U.S. re-entry requirements for your own circumstances. Do not assume that an appointment letter replaces a required travel document.

Plan the crossing before the appointment

Confirm the port of entry, pickup location, coordinator contact, and meeting time. Border waits vary, and a medical appointment does not guarantee expedited processing.

  • Keep travel documents accessible.
  • Carry the clinic address and a reliable contact number.
  • Allow extra time for assessment and the return crossing.

Consider the return trip as part of your care

Ask the clinician about sitting, walking, luggage, and assistance after treatment. Confirm whether you need a companion and where you will recover before crossing. Check current rules for carrying prescribed medication and keep original documentation.
