****************************************
From now on, hotels in Mexico will be gradually introducing an "Eco-Tax".
This means that every user of a hotel room in Mexico is obliged to pay a tax to the state locally at the hotel in cash, similar to a tourist tax.
****************************************
A tourism tax came into force on April 1, 2021, and currently amounts to a one-time payment of 224 Mexican pesos or approx. 11 US dollars per person, regardless of the planned duration of stay in the country.
The tax can be paid electronically before departure via the following link: http://www.visitax.gob.mx/sitio/
Alternatively, the tax can also be paid in cash upon arrival at the airport. It is advisable to carry the exact amount in Mexican pesos or US dollars with you.
In the catalog "Fernreisen" 2025/26 on page 59.

Smoking is prohibited in all public places in Mexico. This also applies to public transport, beaches, parks, hotels and restaurants. Violations can be punished with fines or imprisonment.
