MEXICO TRAVEL LAPTOPS IPADS

Travelers who are taking along electronics need to know that  Mexico has really strict tax laws regarding laptops and IPads.  You cannot bring more than 1 laptop per person.  They may also   consider an IPad as a laptop and will charge you taxes at customs if you do both.  Just a heads up.  People aren't listening and getting hit at customs.

 Someone I know was just going thru Customs a few days ago and was paying a tax on something she brought in for her house.  She was talking to a guy who was paying big bucks. He said he was paying taxes on an IPad  $150USD of taxes!!! Ouch! He had a laptop and an IPad. So ya they do check and count an IPad as a laptop.

If you don’t know the laws or know someone who knows and tells you, but you don't believe it--, it’s clearly indicated on the official Government website that you can’t bring in more than 1 laptop/person. So I guess they might count an IPad as a laptop.


To be forewarned is forearmed.
