Mexico Now Allowing Direct-filed APIS Manifests
The manifest must be emailed within 24 hours of departure and resubmitted 30 minutes before takeoff to confirm the flight.

The Mexican government is now allowing general and business aviation pilots to file advanced passenger information system (APIS) manifests directly when arriving in or departing from the country, eliminating the previous requirement to use a third-party flight-planning provider to do so. Mexico expanded its APIS requirements on January 1 to include general and business aviation flights arriving or departing the country to enhance security and more accurately account for taxes paid by arriving and departing passengers.
