You can enter Mexico without a visa showing your passport and the migration Form for Tourists, Transmigrants, Visiting Business persons, or Visiting Consultants, which you can obtain from travel agencies, airlines, or at your point of entry into Mexico.

This option also applies for permanent legal residents in the USA or
Canada, regardless of nationality.

The migration agent at your point of entry may also ask you to prove that you have the necessary economic resources for your stay and a return ticket to your country of origin.

Under an agreement with Canada and the USA, those countries citizens may prove their nationality with a passport or other public documents, such as:
Certified copy of birth certificate.
Voter registration card.
Naturalization certificate.

If any of these documents lack a photograph, travelers must prove their nationality with another official identification:

Drivers license.
Identification issued by a state or official agency.
Although Canadian and US citizens do not need a passport, the National Institute of Migration recommends one to expedite passage through the point of entry.
