Traveling to Mexico? New regulations on currency acceptance


Mexico to Adopt U.S. Currency Restriction - These new regulations will impact the Mexican tourism industry. What this means to you and fellow travelers visiting Mexico is that the tourism infrastructure will be forced to severely limit their acceptance of US cash currency. Currently, travelers to popular resort destinations often do not need to exchange U.S. currency to Pesos as many airports, hotels and restaurants readily accept U.S. currency. Once the regulation begins, travelers will need to ensure they have an appropriate amount of Mexican Pesos, a credit card or traveler's checks to avoid any problems if paying for transactions while in Mexico or at Mexican airports. The regulations do not restrict non-cash transactions denominated in U.S. currency (e.g., wire transfers, ACH payments, credit card transactions, traveler's checks, etc.)

And yes future travelers, Mexico is very safe and welcomes tourists.
Resorts in the areas of Los Cabos, Cancun, Mayan Riviera, and Playa Del Carmen are offering great summer rates! Fairmont Mayakoba, Royal Hideaway Playacar, RIU Palace Resort, and One and the newly renovated Barcelo Palace Deluxe in Cabo San Lucas!
