Some tips: (for general guidance only)
Legalization of Documents : Apostille: Mexican authorities usually require legalized
foreign documents the way to do it is through an Apostille. These are first must be
certified by a competent Notary from the document's country of origin and should be
certified by one of the Officials in the jurisdiction in which the document has been
executed (in the U.S. usually through the Secretary of State). This document is known
as "Apostille" You will probably find that some formalities before Mexican Authorities
require that specific documents have an Apostille affixed to them (e.g. Immigration
Authorities, Court, etc.)
Notary Public: In Mexico a Notary Public (Notario Publico) is a lawyer who is also a
public official appointed by a Mexican State. The appointment is considered a delegation
of governmental authority for the certification or official recognition of certain acts
and documents. Their public duties and authority include authenticating facts; conduct
title searches; act as public recorder, examine wills and contracts, etc. If you do business
in Mexico, you will undoubtedly come in contact with a Mexican Notary Public when incorporating
Mexican companies, recording certain types of contracts, buy or sell land, property trusts,
authenticate power of attorney or engage in other business, etc.
Immigration: If you are looking to legally reside in Mexico you must apply for the authorization
before the Mexican Immigration authorities. There are strict requirements for obtaining a work visa
to authorize a foreigner to legally work and live in Mexico. The first authorization document is known
as F.M.3 (Non Immigrant, Visitor status) and must be renewed every year for a five-year period.
Foreigners are not allowed to work within the Country with a Tourist Card/Tourist Visa.
Language glitches: Most frequently when learning, speaking or dealing with a foreign language you
may always find you need a good dictionary at hand. Spanish is no exception; you may find stumbling
blocks and, in this case English/Spanish - Spanish/English, we will find there are words which are
similar in both languages since they derive from a common origin (most commonly Greek and Roman),
but throughout time have acquired different meanings. They are called False Cognates. One very common
example is the English word "actually" (in fact; in reality) that translated into Spanish is "realmente";
and the Spanish "actualmente" is translated into English as "currently". So, you might want to be careful
and consider a good dictionary as your best new, loyal friend.
