Mexican SIM Card

If you're going to Sorianas, you can purchase a TelCel sim card at one of the kiosks and have them activate it right away. The sim card should be <100 MX pesos and you can select the various Amigo plans they have available.

I've been purchasing the 200 peso Amigo plan for a couple of years now (or while I'm in Zihua) on a monthly basis using my home computer -- works out to about CAN$ 13.50 per month with unlimited calls, texts to US, Canada and Mexico. They also include some Data in the package which works great in MX and the USA but not so hot in Canada.

To date TelCel doesn't have E-sims available for Iphones (from what I've been told) but the Canadian model of the Iphone 14 comes with an E-sim capability plus the ability to take a regular sim card - but not so for the US version. You can also renew your TelCel plan while you're in Zihua at a number of TelCel outlets.

Hope this is of some help.

Roberto!
