Transportation to the Hotel
Transportation will be provided to and from the hotel and airport. Your flight details will be requested once you’re registered in order for us to assign you into group transportation. Additionally, any offsite excursions registered through NASF will also have transportation provided.
Visas
U.S. citizens do not require a visa to travel to Mexico. You will, however, require a passport.
Customs Process
After getting off the plane, follow signage to Customs. If you do not have children with you, you will go to the left-hand/smaller side of Customs and can use the automated entry booths, which require you to scan your passport, enter a booth and take a picture of yourself for processing. After this, a ticket will be printed out and given to you, and you are free to enter the country. On average, this whole process only takes 20-30 minutes, depending on time of your arrival.
If you have children with you or are not a citizen of Canada or the United States, you will go to the right-hand/larger side of Customs to enter the country manually.
Tourist Tax
The Mexican state of Quintana Roo, where Cancún is located, requires that all international visitors pay a VisiTAX before leaving. This tax is $20.99 per person and can be paid online (following instructions on the printed-out ticket you receive upon entering the country) before arriving to the airport to leave. The tax is used to mitigate the impact on Cancún’s beaches, natural reserves and archeological sites.
Note: While some travelers have reported not paying the VisiTAX before leaving the Cancún, we highly recommend paying it just in case, as it is mandated before the government of the state of Quintana Roo.
For more information on the VisiTAX, go to Cancún Airport’s official website.
