Yes you do. For tourists it is not necessary, but residents have, as per a customs officer in the Mexico City airport last week

Anyone know the procedures now in effect for residentes permanentes regarding the fmm when exiting Mexico. Do we still have to visit Migracion to "check out", now that the fmm is no longer required for entry???

I called United Airlines and they said that the form was no longer needed. That is probably why when I tried to do it on line like in the past, it was only for those
coming into Mexico by land. I'm from Wisconsin too ! Sure glad our friends introduced us to Ixtapa back in 2001...been coming to paradise ever since.

We flew into ZIH from MSP on Wednesday Jan 4 on Sun County. They had us fill out the regular FMM forms on-board, along with the customs declaration form of one-per-family. Got to the first stop where we had our passports stamped, and all they asked was how many days we would be in I/Z. They did not give us back the usual bottom stub of the FMM form, just gave us back the whole form, with no further explanation. We’ll keep it and see what they want back, if anything, in April. Other than that, we cruised through the whole airport process in our record time of probably 20 to 25 minutes total. Landed at ZIH at 5:17pm and were at our condo in Ixtapa in less than an hour!

Thanks Doug for the reply. We have been coming to Ixtapa since 2001 and can't wait to leave cold Wisconsin for a six week stay.

Does anybody know if the FMM Tourist Card is required for entry to Mexico when
coming in via air from the USA. I have filled this out online in the past but now
am having a problem getting the form for entry by air to load. I saw that it is no longer needed for Cancun and a few other popular vacation destination in Mexico.
