Mexico Visa from Thailand
Thai passports need a visa for Mexico — either the free SAE e-authorization (30d tourism), or a consular visa at the Mexican Embassy in Bangkok. For Temporary/Permanent Resident, we prepare economic-solvency dossiers, Apostille Hague, and sworn Spanish translation with a Perito Traductor accepted by the consulate.
Quick Answer
Tourist: SAE free 30d OR MXN 600 consular. Temporary Resident: USD 4,300/mo income. Permanent: USD 285k savings. Our service THB 6,500–85,000.
