  How to get your FMM at El Chaparral (entering Tijuana via San Ysidro)

  Posted by BajaGringo on January 24, 2022 at 7:38 pm

  Open 24 hours each day and located at the very southern end of the Interstate 5 freeway, El Chaparral is the southbound border crossing into Tijuana from San Ysidro/San Diego.
  If you already obtained your tourist card (FMM) online, this is the same office where you will need to go to get your entry into Mexico officially stamped.
  As you approach the border crossing, move over to the Declaration Lanes and then cross, following the Declaration Lane signs into the designated parking area.
  The immigration office is in the blue SAT Aduanas building on the right – ask a customs official where you may park if you have any doubts.
  From there simply enter the blue building and ask for the immigration office where you can obtain your FMM or have your FMM stamped that you obtained online.
  Easy-Peazy!
