Buy your Mex Fishing License ONLINE and Save

[GiantSquid]

I have mail ordered mine from Conapesca a few times (don't live in SD area). Turn around it quick - no complaints.

Ok, I went online to buy the permit. Went through the whole process, entered the payment info and pressed the buy button(in spanish) and received a "system error"

Did you by chance do the online payment process on a weekend? Reason I ask, is because we did ours a while back, on a weekend, got the same error...waited till Monday, logged in, brought up our permit, and boom it printed out no problema. Could be that their system needs some type of verification not available on weekends? Bank or otherwise?

I did go back into the original login screen and entered the ID (or R.F.C.) number that I used to pay for the permit, and you can see what permits you have paid for. I was able to print out the receipt from here. I will be on Sergio's boat tomorrow, so I will at least validate it out there tomorrow and post up at the end of the weekend if it was valid or not. I am sure it will be fine....or at least I hope it will!

Hassle free and totally legit. I did have to stop by the local liquor store for a money order, but the piece of mind I got with the nice blue licence with an official mexico stamp made it all worth the trip. The address above is a good one but, the office has a street side entrance on the corner of 4th ST and Laurel ST.

I agree and this is normally how I do it, but tried this out this time. I just want to confirm that the printed receipt and transaction record would work. I would hate to put someone's boat at risk if I was carrying a half-ass Mex license.
Can anyone confirm this?

I just put this post up in another thread, and thought it may be appropiate here as well.

I originally had problems purchasing the permit online through this website. Once I emailed Hector about my issue, he looked into it and was able to generate my brothers Mexican Fishing Permit online where we where able to print it out and save it just in time for our trip last week. For anybody wanting to purchase a permit you may want to follow these directions and you'll have your permit almost instantly. Hope this helps!

exchange rate is around 13 not 14.5 and if you charge it to CC be careful some cc companies charge you for exchange rate

Any hints on the easiest way to obtain permits for fishing Guadalupe from a private boat?
Thanks,

Half the shit is still in spanish. Not as easy as they say and there is no way to manage your account.

[LipRippertoo]

Yeah, what the
Crazy Hawaiian said.

[Marcus]

My pops used it today and it worked perfectly.

[asabadin]

just used it and it was simple to do.
The credit card info is in Spanish but if you have half a brain you can figure it out.
you enter your name card number expiration date and security code. also if everything is in Spanish from the beginning you have to click on the American flag on the first page and everything will be in English except for the CC pay info. page. hope this helps.
