The last time I cleared into
Mexico at Isla Mujeres was Dec. 2009. At that time the
Customs officials wanted a clearing out Zarpe from the
USA even though they knew that the
USA does not issue exit zarpes for USA boats. I had no such papers but a marina receipt issued to me only a few days earlier with the name of my
boat on it seemed to satisfy them.They were very insistent that I had proof that my
boat had come directly from the States. My question: Is a zarpe or some such notarized paper still required when clearing into
Mexico at Isla Mujeres?
