Until you get to El Puesto de Control militar 12 Km south of La Bufadora turnoff.
There was a SAT HACIENDA SHCP pickup parked there. Yes it had a red and blue light bar on top. We passed at 0520 AM so traffic was non existent. In a toad not a casarodante.
Still unsure. As many troubling clues as I saw, nothing and I mean zero, confirms whether or not a 10-year TIP is mandatory.
And I do remember at paralelo 28 the state line IMN immigration is hit or miss. So Aduana (Santa Rosalia) can easily station SAT verification along with the wheel bug spray agricultural inspector. They have turned tens of DOZENS of visitors around who didn't bother getting an FMM at the border.
I assume nothing down here. This is Mexico not Manhattan Beach.
