With the Visa Laser, you can travel for tourism, pleasure, medical treatments, and even do business in the country. You can also participate in business meetings, events, congresses, fairs, or scientific, educational, or professional conventions.

What are the differences between the Visa Laser and the B1/B2 Visa?

The Visa Laser is an exclusive document that only Mexican citizens can apply for, unlike the B1/B2 Visa that citizens from all over Latin America, Asia, and Africa can apply for as well.

On the other hand, although the Visa Laser costs the same as the B1/B2 Visa ($160 USD), one of the benefits that only the Visa Laser has is that applicants under 15 years old will only have to pay $15 USD for the Visa Laser, while those under 15 years old applying for the B1/B2 must pay the full MRV fee, which is the usual $160 USD.

In addition, with the Laser Visa, Mexicans can easily cross the border with the United States, without having to present their passport. However, with the B1/B2 Visa, Mexicans can travel throughout all the states of the United States, while with the Laser Visa Mexicans can only travel through the border states.

If you as a Mexican want to travel across all the states of the United States with the Visa Laser, you can do it by bringing your passport.

Questions?

If this happens, please contact our customer service team as soon as possible. Our visa experts are available 24/7 and will help you to fix the problem.

Unfortunately, applications can sometimes be refused by the government . If this occurs, you will be eligible for a full refund of the iVisa processing fee. Apart from that, government fees are non-refundable.

You may consider re-applying for the United States Visa Láser, depending on why your visa was rejected.

No, you don’t. If you’re transiting through the United States and you don’t have a valid US visa already (such as a B1/B2), you should apply for a US Transit Visa (C1).
A visa does not guarantee US entry. The Department of Homeland Security U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) immigration inspector is responsible for authorizing or denying admission to the United States on arrival.
In this case, you must contact the embassy to inform them of the loss and replace it as soon as possible.
You cannot enter the US with a damaged visa. If your document has been damaged in any way, you must reapply for the United States Visa Láser.
No, since the Department of Homeland Security U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) allowed you to enter the country. However, you can only stay in the U.S. for the period of time and conditions authorized by the immigration officers when you arrived in the U.S., which will be noted in your passport.
At iVisa, we understand that your time is valuable, and we strive to provide you with the fastest service possible. Our processing times are estimated based on the average duration it takes governments to process visa applications. These estimated times begin from the moment we receive all the correct information for your application until you receive your visa. While we work diligently to expedite the process, it’s important to note that we are reliant on the processing times set by the government authorities.
