Not sure if you're joking but here it is: when you get the confirmation number on the last FMM page, you can download and save the form on your computer and print it that way. If this doesn't make sense to you, watch this video and you see what I mean: th-cam.com/video/9BBAzI2z4xg/w-d-xo.htmlm30s
Hello! I am on the site completing the registration. The nationality and country code doesnt give American /USA as an option. Can you clarify? Thank you.
You print the FMM after you fill it out. You get an email with your FMM as an attachment after filling out the FMM. You can print that or immediately after completing the FMM it allows you to print right from the screen. If you received a payment confirmation that means you entered your FMM number in the portal and it pulled up your FMM and you paid for it.
Maybe you can help me out, if say my vehicle permit expires November 21 and I cancel at the permit before the expiration. Could I literally come back the next day re get another permit for another 6 months?
@@danielrecendiz833when you say “vehicle permit” do you mean the “TIP” (Temporary importation permit)? If yes, I’m sure you’re aware that you need to put down a deposit for the TIP and the amount of the deposit depends on the age of your vehicle. That TIP will be attached to the VIN number of your vehicle. When you cancel the TIP you need to bring the TIP to the Banjercito inside of Mexico or to a consulate in the states to have it revoked and only then you’ll be able to receive your deposit back. So I don’t really understand your question and what you’re trying to accomplish.
Server 500 is a problem on the server side, as opposed to a bad link. The link on the video is correct and resolved to the correct site. Here it is again. I've tried it and it works! www.inm.gob.mx/spublic/portal/inmex.html

Good question. Never tried it but techinically it should be possible as you're pulling up the FMM number one at a time to pay for it. I've never had to do multiple ones but would be great to find out if it works. Please let me know.
@ yes sorry, I’m traveling by land and this is the first time doing it. I’m just not sure if this would work on any port of entry or would I have to stop at the border and wait until they open the offices at 9 and fill out that form there and then.
Just be aware that you will have to explain this to the officer at the immigration checkpoint. Understand that Mexico is a sovereign nation with its own immigration rules and just because your gardner speaks Spanish doesn’t mean you can come and go as you please. Follow the rules and be prepared to face consequences when you break them.
There are also a big group of people who don’t believe there are immigration checkpoints. Here’s a post of mine from November where we encountered one just outside of Santa Rosalía and read the comments: facebook.com/groups/BajaRoads/permalink/1960844717752972/?mibextid=wwXIfr
