Driving to Belize

Driving to Belize can be a challenge. Depending on the route taken, the trip to Belize through Mexico can be anywhere from 1,350-2,000 miles. A sturdy car, protective insurance, and positive determination are huge assets in assuring one’s arrival. In order for visitors to drive into Belize from Guatemala or Mexico, a temporary importation permit must be secured at the point of entry. Permits are valid for one month but can be extended by applying to the Customs Department. To get a permit, present the following at the point of entry:

Travel documents and identification
Proof of ownership (vehicle registration)
Proof of insurance--available from any of the companies at the borders
Rental documents (for vehicles rented in Mexico or Guatemala)
