Sailing Away: The Hidden Bureaucracy of Leaving Mexico by Boat

Sailing Away: The Unexpected Bureaucracy of Leaving Mexico by Boat Leaving a country by sailboat isn't as simple as hoisting the sails. WMN creator Méray Réka recently shared her experience departing Mexico from Isla Mujeres, revealing the surprising amount of paperwork and official interactions involved. The process, she explains, includes visits to the Capitanía de Puerto (harbor master's office) and immigration authorities. "The process is different in each country," Réka explains in her TikTok video, highlighting the importance of advance planning and research. She shows viewers the various forms and documents required, including boat registration, crew lists, and passports. The video also captures the financial aspect, showing Réka paying a departure fee of 384 pesos (approximately 20 euros). The video culminates in Réka receiving the official exit stamp in her passport, marking the successful completion of the process. Her experience offers a valuable insight into the often-overlooked administrative side of international sailing, reminding viewers that adventure often involves more than just setting sail.
