Fellow citizens can be found in embassies throughout the Mexican Caribbean

Consulates and embassies provide a friendly face abroad and can assist you with lost or stolen passports, emergencies, or just general information. Local consular offices also provide a list of local doctors, dentists, and medical specialists.

If you are involved in an emergency, go to the nearest embassy or consular office for your native country and register as a citizen in the region. Although you may not have needed your passport to enter a particular region, it is good idea to bring it along for identification at the embassy. If you are injured or become seriously ill, a consul will help you find medical assistance and, at your request, inform your family or friends.
