Overall, if you use common sense and follow general safety guidelines, you should have a safe and enjoyable visit to San Miguel de Allende.

Do I Need A Passport?

Yes, if you are a citizen of a country other than Mexico, you will need a valid passport to travel to San Miguel de Allende. A passport is required for all international travel and serves as proof of identity and citizenship. It is important to ensure that your passport is up-to-date and has enough validity to cover the duration of your trip before departing. Additionally, it's a good idea to make a photocopy of your passport and keep it in a separate location, in case your passport is lost or stolen during your travels.
