The government of Mexico will maintain indefinitely the visa requirement for Ecuadorians who seek to travel on international flights to this country.
Having removed this requirement in November 2018 looking to boost tourism, business and trade, the government of Mexico will reapply for a visa for Ecuadorians from 4 September 2021.
Along with recent additional requirements for Ecuadorians that sought to curb somewhat the illegal migration with final destination to USA, more extreme measures have been taken to curb this movement, the visa was the logical path.
Mexico asks Ecuadorians for a visa again
The initial announcement was made last August and took effect from 4 September 2021, but this requirement has been expanded from indefinite way as updated 25 February 2022 subject to changes or negotiations that may exist between both governments.
As there has been no evidence of progress in the matter that improves migratory flows, insurance, orderly and regular, Mexico decided to extend this requirement without a new end date., unless both governments take appropriate action.

Children must also obtain a visa
Yes, too.
Not even two days ago in another entry I had told you that they would put a visa again. Here is the visa again "temporary". For Mexico to allow Ecuadorians to travel without a visa again, they will spend a minimum 10 years at best. A pity to lose that visa exception. I hope they don't start entering other countries where they exonerated us and not leave as happened with Mexico. Otherwise the Ecuadorian passport will lose more and more its value.
I do not think that more countries do not put visa again, The issue of Mexico is the entrance to the United States and surely that country put the pressure.
When Mexico abolished visas for Ecuadorians in the 2018, Guatemala also suppressed it. Guarda is how in you blog :). Without counting, it will go very badly for us with what came walking from Europe. We will see a setback in the positions gained by the EC passport.
Connectivity with Guatemala is limited and there is no direct. I doubt that it will be analyzed to give us a visa for Guatemala again, but we will see.
Hi Nicolas,
Here I leave the news that I forwarded to you in this comment that you will keep. Actually Guatemala did it faster than expected.
The decision was made to put a visa to Ecuadorians to enter Guatemalan territory.. Measure, which will come into force from next Monday 20 September for an indefinite period
It was something that was going to happen, unfortunately it is already defined and Ecuador loses, Let's hope Panama doesn't.
Hi Nicolas, If I have a tourist visa from the United States, I need the Mexican visa ?. Greetings
Hello Jose, you do not need.
greetings friends, I have a flight in October to Mexico, but I do have a Canadian tourist visa.
Even so, it is necessary to acquire a visa to go to Mexico.
Why when they released the news of this new requirement in a post it said that it should be a permanent visa (Canada.. USA..)
But now they only say Visa… So what is the valid document they need.?
Hi Michelle, that information is indicated here.
