All U.S. citizens who wish to enter Mexico must meet the conditions required by immigration authorities, such as having a visa and a valid and current passport.

However, there are specific requirements for a passport to be considered valid. In addition to not being expired, and not having physical damage to its pages and/or covers, it must have enough blank pages for immigration stamps to be placed.
