Do you need passport or is birth certifcate and drivers license ok?



Recommended Posts

I have been told that you only need birth certificate and drivers license to cross over to Tijuana. Is this true? Anyone recently done this?

It changed recently I believe. I think you need a passport.

You need a passport to get back into the U.S. from Mexico. I'm having my surgery with Dr. Aceves, and here is the paragraph from the information they sent me:

"Passports are now required to get back into the US after traveling to Mexico. If your passport has not arrived, proof that you have applied for it along with your birth certificate and ID (driver’s license) are enough to let you get back into the US. Remember you can also expedite your passport. "

Passports, even if driving across the border. The rules changed a few years ago, it used to be just birth certificate and driver's license.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
