الحصول على موعد — احجز مبكرًا · وفق إفادات المستخدمين، تم التحقق في 2026-06-13
- تُطرح المواعيد على دفعات دون جدول معلن ثابت — غالبًا في الصباح الباكر بالتوقيت المحلي، وصباح الإثنين، وحول اليوم الأول من الشهر.
- في القنصليات المزدحمة (مثل فرنسا وإيطاليا وإسبانيا في المدن الكبرى) قد تُحجز الدفعة خلال دقائق — سجّل وادخل إلى حسابك قبل البحث.
- تتوفّر مواعيد طوال اليوم بسبب الإلغاءات، لذا تحقّق يوميًا حتى لو ظهر «لا توجد مواعيد».
- لذلك قدّم في أقرب وقت مسموح — حتى ستة أشهر قبل السفر. الانتظار حتى شهر أو شهرين غالبًا يعني عدم توفّر أي موعد.
معلومات مفيدة
- This is the Temporary Resident Visa on economic-solvency grounds — Mexico has no separate named 'digital nomad' visa, but remote workers use this route (the employer letter must explicitly agree to your plan to reside in Mexico and work remotely).
- Solvency thresholds and fees vary slightly by consulate; the Orlando consulate lists US$4,393/month income or US$73,215 savings and a US$53 processing fee.
- The processing fee is charged before review regardless of whether the visa is approved; the consulate's decision is final.
- After receiving the consular visa you must exchange it for a Temporary Resident card in Mexico within 30 days of entry.
