In order to guarantee fluid and fast access to international travelers, Mexico adds three more destinations with EGates technology: Puerto Vallarta, Guadalajara, and Los Cabos.
The commissioner of the National Institute of Migration (INM), Francisco Garduño Yáñez, verified the operation of the 18 E-Gates -automated migration filters- installed at the Cancun International Airport, Quintana Roo, as the country’s first pilot program, through which 53,207 people from the United States, Canada, and Mexico, passed in this first stage of implementation.
It is planned to install the Egates in the international airports of Los Cabos, in Baja California Sur, as well as Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta, in the state of Jalisco, and extend the benefits to visitors of other nationalities.
The National Institute of Migration considers that the implementation of new technologies favors fast, safe, and efficient international connectivity in tourism and business matters, among others.
These actions are part of the first stage of operations, with the start-up of 30 E-Gates in the country: 18 at the Cancun International Airport (14 of them in Terminal III and 4 in Terminal IV), and 12 more at the Mexico City International Airport (6 in Terminal 1 and 6 more in Terminal 2).
Of the 70,000 visitors registered by these FMA in the two international airports, 56,779 are from the United States; 6,000 are from Canada, and 7,000 are Mexican; At the Mexico City International Airport (AICM), 16,803 people have passed through the egates.
The Autonomous Migration Filters have a system that simplifies the procedures, so all you have to do is place the electronic passport on the scanner, access it, follow the instructions on the screen, pick up the ticket, and go along your way.
