What do I need to know before moving to Mazatlan?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Mazatlan, they said...

"Mazatlan is a beach city located in the state of Sinaloa in northwest Mexico. As an expat, it is important to understand the laws and regulations of the country, as these can vary from place to place in Mexico. It is also important to be aware of the language barrier, as Spanish is the predominant language in the region. To ensure a smooth transition, it is wise to familiarize oneself with the local culture, customs, and etiquette before moving to the city. In addition, expats should consider their safety needs and take steps to ensure their well-being in a new environment. Lastly, research which documents are needed in order to gain permanent residency, as well as any requirements for gaining citizenship," said a member in Mazatlan, Mexico.
