Full-Service Mexican Dual Citizenship Preparation

1. Document Review & Eligibility Consultation

We begin with a thorough review of your personal documents to:

• Confirm eligibility under Mexican nationality law (Article 30 of the Mexican Constitution)

• Ensure your parents’ Mexican documents match your U.S. birth record

• Identify any red flags, like name discrepancies or missing middle names

• Create a personalized checklist with everything you’ll need for your consular appointment

If your documents need to be notarized before being apostilled or translated, we can help:

• Certified copy notarization of your original U.S. birth certificate using Copy Certification by Document Custodian
