    I went last year with a passport the was due to expire in 3 months. I was given a little bit of a scare when Westjet agent told me I could be refused in Mexico and it would depend on the person I got in Mexico at the entry. I kept my mouth shut and didn't make a mention of it. I was looked at for a period of time but let through. Thank God. But 6 months is usually the requirement for passport expiration. You can get a renewal the same day at any passport office for a price.
    Don't risk taking the perfume on the flight. Pack it well and put it in your checked bag.
    Hope you get thru and have a great time.....Cheers

    they don't come out and say 6 months but they strongly advise

    from GOC website,,, I had the same problem and renewed

    since most countryies req the 6 month thing why don't they renew passports 8 months ahead of time ?

    Entering Mexico

    All Canadian citizens need a valid passport to enter Mexico. Canadian citizens without a valid passport will not be allowed entry into Mexico and will be returned to Canada. In order to avoid delays and misunderstandings, we strongly recommend that you travel with a passport valid for six months after your arrival date.

    Well I traveled to cancun on October 5th,2012 and my passport expired onFebuary 18th, 2013 and I Didn't have any problems with a USA passport. As far as perfume goes ......throw in a ziplock bag and then put it into another ziplock bag and wrap it in clothes and put it in your checked bag and you will be fine ......if you take it in a carry on and it's more then 3oz they will take it. Hope this helped

    Hi Jess,
    Your passport will not be a problem. Six months is plenty of time, and he will have no trouble getting into Mexico.

    If your perfume is under 3 ounces, you can bring it in your carry on. If it's over that, it has to go in your checked bag, but it's not forbidden. Just pad it very well because it could get broken!

    Personally it may be inconvenient to go to Ottawa to renew but I think it would be worth it to go get it renewed. Better safe than sorry.
