Travel Advisory – Mexico

Belmopan, February 22, 2026,

The Government of Belize hereby advises all Belizean nationals resident in or transiting Mexico to exercise a high degree of caution and to be conscious of their environment at all times.

Belizeans are advised to avoid non-essential travel in the following states: Jalisco, Tamaulipas, Michoacan, Guerrero, and Nuevo Leon. Belizeans, particularly in Merida and the northern areas of Quintana Roo, are to exercise caution and monitor local warnings and official forums.

This advisory is as a result of a major anti-narcotics operation conducted by the Mexican government and retaliatory actions by narco-players in Mexico.

The Government of Belize continues to monitor the situation, which currently has no direct impact on Belize, and will update the public accordingly.
