I plan on having some major improvements done to my casa in Playa Miramar. I have looked and cannot seem to find any definative answer to this question. Is there a flat % that they charge if I have an invoice or receipt for the items I need to bring into Mexico? How much is the per person...

I agree with Russ and Don, I like seeing the Federalies and checkpoints. It used to freak my wife out seeing all those masked men toting guns. When I explained that they were there to protect her, she started thanking them and smiling at them and they usually return the good will.

We got the red light April 27 @ 9PM. Had 4 dogs, 3 labs and a 9 week old dobie. The agent asked if I had papers for the dogs in fluent english. I replied yes. I searched thru my center console and came up with an old certificate of health for 2 dogs that was 10 months old. He took one look at it...

Sweet! Thanks for the heads up. Now I can sit in Flagstaff and see what I am missing on the beach. Arrgh!

That was wonderful! I wish we could get our local paganero gill netters to cease and desist their dispicable practice. I have found 3 propose skulls already this year in the La Pinta estuary area. I have also witnessed them come run their nets right in front of me while I am surfcasting for sea...

Can anyone recommend a good source for landscape plant & trees near Puerto Penasco? We are thinking about planting some agaves, palms, etc. around our casa.

Will be in Penasco next week and would like to get out on a boat besides my kayak. Will pay for gas and food. Anybody got room for one more? Just about any day will do. Tight lines!:gofishing:

Thanks for all the good advice! I went ahead and declared the dishwasher and some other stuff and showed the receipts. It was after 8PM so the bank was closed and the agent took me into the office, did a calculation and said I owed $36. She gave me a receipt and I drove thru with out a second look.

Does anyone have any experience or recommmendations about wether or not to declare a large item I am bringing Puerto Penasco? I just bought a dishwasher and am bringing it down to install in my remodeled kitchen. I have been back and forth 6 times since Thanksgiving and never been stopped or...
