Everything is completely virtual — which means you don’t need to visit an office or the consulate. We’ve designed our process to be as seamless and simple as possible for our clients. First, we send you a digital contract to review and sign electronically. Then we send over your invoice, and once that’s paid, we provide a prepaid shipping label for you to securely send in your documents (if required). From there, we handle everything: processing, translations, apostilles, government filings or other processes as required.
We’re a registered company based in California, and we operate fully online. That means you can complete the entire process from the comfort of your home — no need to travel, take time off work, or visit the consulate. Because we’re based in California, we also follow some of the most stringent consumer protection and data privacy laws in the country. Your personal information and documents are always handled with the highest level of security and professionalism.
Outsourcing your international business services to Aztlan International Services allows you to focus on your core business activities while leveraging our expertise and experience to expand your global reach and increase profitability.
To apply for Mexican dual citizenship through your parents or grandparents, you’ll need:
If applying through a grandparent, you’ll also need your parent’s birth certificate to prove the direct bloodline. If any of these documents are missing — especially the Mexican birth certificate — we can help retrieve it directly from Mexico
If you were born in the U.S. and have a Mexican-born parent or grandparent, you may be eligible for Mexican dual citizenship by descent. The process involves registering your birth in Mexico based on your family lineage. To do this, you'll need your own U.S. birth certificate and your Mexican parent’s (or grandparent’s) certified birth certificate. If applying through a grandparent, your parent will need to obtain their citizenship first, and we can assist with both cases. At Aztlán International Services, we handle the full process virtually — including retrieving missing Mexican documents, handling apostilles and translations, and submitting your paperwork to the appropriate civil registry. There’s no need to visit the consulate or travel to Mexico — we make it simple, secure, and stress-free.
Yes — both the United States and Mexico allow dual citizenship. You do not have to give up your U.S. citizenship to become a Mexican citizen by descent. This means you can hold passports from both countries, enjoy the rights and benefits of each, and move freely between them. Dual citizenship is fully legal and recognized under the laws of both nations, and it's a common process for people of Mexican heritage born in the U.S.
Yes, you can apply for Mexican citizenship through your grandparents — even if your parents or grandparents are deceased. However, Mexican law requires direct lineage, so your parent (the child of the Mexican grandparent) must first be registered as a Mexican citizen. Once your parent is recognized as a citizen, you can apply afterward. We offer bundled services to help both you and your parent complete the process together, and we provide family discounts when multiple relatives apply. If your grandparent’s birth certificate is missing, we can help search and retrieve it from Mexico.
No — if you're applying for Mexican citizenship by descent (through your parents or grandparents), you do not need to speak Spanish. Language requirements only apply to people applying through naturalization, not those claiming citizenship through ancestry. Whether you speak fluent Spanish or none at all, you're still entitled to your Mexican nationality if you meet the family eligibility requirements.
No — you do not need to live in Mexico to apply for or receive Mexican dual citizenship. If you qualify through a Mexican parent or grandparent, the process can be completed entirely from abroad, and there’s no residency requirement. At Aztlan International Services, we handle everything virtually, so you can apply from the comfort of your home in the U.S. or anywhere else — with no need to travel or visit Mexico.
At Aztlan International Services, most of our clients complete the process in 1 to 2 months. However, exact timelines can vary depending on factors like how quickly U.S. and Mexican government agencies process documents, availability of civil registry records, and any necessary corrections. We work as efficiently as possible to move your case forward and keep you updated at every step — all while handling everything virtually for your convenience.
No — there is no age limit to apply for Mexican citizenship through your parents or grandparents. Whether you’re registering a newborn, applying as an adult, or helping an elderly family member, the right to claim Mexican nationality by descent is protected under the Mexican Constitution. We’ve helped clients of all ages complete the process — and we tailor our approach to each case to make it as simple and secure as possible.
Yes — you can still apply for Mexican citizenship even if your parent or grandparent is deceased. As long as you can provide their Mexican birth certificate, your right to claim nationality through ancestry remains valid. This right is protected under the Mexican Constitution. At Aztlan International Services, we assist clients in these cases regularly, and we can also help search for and obtain the necessary documents from Mexico if you don’t already have them.
No problem — we can help with that. If you don’t have your parent’s Mexican birth certificate, Aztlán International Services can search for and obtain it directly from the Mexican civil registry. All we need is some basic information, such as your parent’s full name, date of birth, place of birth, and the name of at least one of their parents. Once we retrieve the document, we’ll handle the apostille, certified translation, and everything else needed to move forward with your dual citizenship application.
Our service costs $275 if you already have your parent’s Mexican birth certificate, and $300 if you need us to help obtain it for you. This fee includes everything — from retrieving or validating documents, to apostilles, certified translations, and full handling of your registration with the Mexican civil registry. We make the process simple, virtual, and stress-free, so you don’t have to deal with paperwork or consulate visits. You're not just paying for paperwork — you're investing in a secure, professional, and efficient path to reclaim your Mexican nationality.
No — with Aztlán International Services, you do not need to visit the Mexican consulate. We handle the entire dual citizenship process virtually, from contract signing and document preparation to registration with the civil registry. You’ll receive a prepaid shipping label for your documents, and once the process is complete, we send your originals and Mexican documents safely back to you. It’s a secure, convenient alternative to long consulate wait times — all from the comfort of your home.
Once the process is complete, you’ll receive three key documents from the Mexican government:
These documents confirm your status as a Mexican citizen and make you eligible for a Mexican passport, national benefits, and full legal rights in Mexico.
If your parent was born in Mexico but never officially registered with the civil registry, they can still obtain a Mexican birth certificate through a process called "registro de nacimiento extemporáneo" (late birth registration). This is a legal and recognized procedure in Mexico that allows individuals to be registered after the fact. At Aztlan International Services, we assist with the entire process — from preparing the necessary documents and declarations to submitting everything to the appropriate civil authority. Once your parent receives their birth certificate, you can then apply for Mexican dual citizenship through them.
Yes! Once your dual citizenship process is complete and your Mexican birth certificate has been issued, you are officially recognized as a Mexican citizen — which means you’re eligible to apply for a Mexican passport. You can do this either through a Mexican consulate in the U.S. or directly in Mexico. Your passport will allow you to travel freely, access national benefits, and prove your nationality when needed.
Dual citizenship with Mexico offers a wide range of advantages. As a Mexican citizen, you can:
It also helps strengthen your cultural and legal connection to your family roots. With Aztlan International Services, we make obtaining these benefits easy, secure, and fully virtual.
No — the Mexican government does not currently offer a fully online application for dual citizenship. However, at Aztlan International Services, we offer the next best thing: a completely virtual process that doesn’t require you to visit a consulate or government office. We handle everything for you in Mexico, making the process "online" or "virtual" for you! — from digital contract signing and document preparation to secure shipping and final delivery of your Mexican documents. It’s the most convenient and stress-free way to complete the process without ever leaving your home.
Yes, in most cases you can still apply, even if there’s a mistake on your birth certificate. Common issues like misspelled names, missing accents, or mismatched parent names can usually be corrected through an amendment or supporting affidavit. If a correction is required, contact us and we can assist with the process before moving forward with your dual citizenship application.
Yes — Aztlán International Services specializes in helping individuals who were born in Mexico but were never officially registered with the civil registry. This process is known as a “Registro de Nacimiento Extemporáneo” or late birth registration. If you or a family member were never issued a Mexican birth certificate, we can guide you through the legal and administrative process of registering the birth, even decades later.
The processing time to obtain a certified copy of a Mexican vital record — whether it's a birth, death, or marriage certificate — typically ranges from 1-2 months, depending on the state and the availability of the record. Some states offer more accessible registry access with quicker turnaround times, while others require more detailed requests or in-person follow-up, which can cause delays. At Aztlan International Services, we specialize in navigating these variations across all 32 Mexican states to ensure the fastest possible service. If the record is readily available and in good condition, we may be able to deliver a certified digital scan within a few weeks. For older or hard-to-locate records the process may take longer.
To retrieve a Mexican birth, death, or marriage certificate, we’ll need a few key details to locate the correct record in the civil registry. At minimum, we ask for the full legal name of the individual, their date of birth (or death/marriage), and the place of registration — this is usually the city or municipality where the event occurred. For birth certificates, providing the names of both parents is extremely helpful and often required. If you don’t have all the details, don’t worry — we’ll guide you through alternative verification steps and help build a case using any documents you do have. Our team has experience locating hard-to-find records from all 32 Mexican states, including older archives. Once we have the required information, we handle the search, retrieval, certification, and delivery — all remotely and securely.
Yes, you can request civil records — including birth, death, and marriage certificates — from any of the 32 states in Mexico, and Aztlán International Services is equipped to assist you with all of them. Each Mexican state has its own civil registry system and administrative processes, which can vary in terms of response times, record formats, and search requirements. Whether the event was registered in Jalisco, Nuevo León, Oaxaca, Veracruz, or Mexico City, we handle the communication, documentation, and legal formalities with the local civil registry office
No, in most cases you do not need to go to Mexico or visit a consulate to correct errors on a Mexican birth, death, or marriage certificate. At Aztlan International Services, we handle registry corrections remotely, guiding you through the legal steps required to amend names, dates, places of birth, or other inaccuracies. Depending on the type of correction and the civil registry office involved, the process may require a notarized affidavit, supporting documents, and legal filings — but we manage the entire process on your behalf. We coordinate directly with the appropriate registry officials in Mexico and ensure that all corrections are legally valid and properly certified.
Yes — when you request a Mexican birth, death, or marriage certificate through Aztlán International Services, we provide both a certified physical copy and a high-resolution digital (PDF) version of the document for your convenience. The digital copy is scanned and securely delivered to your email, making it easy to use for online applications, official processes, or personal records. This is especially helpful if you're applying for dual citizenship, immigration benefits, or need to submit documents to agencies or institutions that accept digital formats. Our goal is to make your documents as accessible and useful as possible — while ensuring the integrity and legal validity of every record we retrieve.
Yes — Aztlan International Services can assist with both corrections and insertions on Mexican marriage certificates. If there are errors such as misspelled names, incorrect dates, or missing details, we’ll guide you through the legal process to correct them through the appropriate civil registry. We can also assist with the inserción de acta — which means formally registering a valid foreign marriage certificate in Mexico so that it’s recognized by Mexican authorities. This service is especially important for individuals seeking legal status changes, property rights, or dual nationality.
Yes, Aztlán International Services can assist with the validation and correction of Mexican death certificates specifically for use in property succession cases (sucesión testamentaria o intestamentaria). We can manage the entire process to ensure it's legally recognized by Mexican authorities. If the death occurred outside of Mexico, we also handle the full procedure for the inserción de acta, which is the official registration of a foreign death certificate into the Mexican civil registry. This step is often required before any inheritance proceedings can begin. Our team takes care of the translations, apostilles, document preparation, and coordination with registry offices.
The cost of our vital record retrieval services is fixed and straightforward. A Mexican birth certificate costs $50 USD, with an additional $15 USD fee for records dated before 1955 due to special archive handling. Marriage and death certificates are each $100 USD. These prices include search, retrieval, certification, and delivery.
For other civil registry services — such as birth certificate corrections, acta insertions, or late birth registrations (registro extemporáneo) — pricing can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the state where the record is held. These services often require additional legal documentation, registry coordination, or affidavits, which we handle on your behalf. To get an accurate quote, please contact us directly for a no-obligation case evaluation.
