The airports of Guadalajara and Puerto Vallarta will have laboratories for the application of covid-19 detection tests starting today, January 25, 2021.

People who have tested positive for a viral test in the previous 90 days and have met the isolation criteria may travel by presenting proof of a positive viral test and an official letter from the health provider or a public health official authorizing them to travel.
In both airports, the cost of the antigen test will be $450 ($22 USD) pesos and the PCR of 1,450 pesos ($72 USD); prices will be applicable only to passengers on international flights. ($1 USD = $20.19 MXP)
