New TIP
Hello all, I recently heard about the TIP being issued on your phone . No more window stickers..?Has anyone applied for a new TIP and how does it work. Thanks for any info.

- There is no decal. You either print out the permission or have it on your phone. The police can scan the Q code you are given. It will take the official to the government data base showing all the info about you and the vehicle.
This system is working well. - The only phone we have is a stupid phone. Wouldn't work for us!

If the phone gets stolen how do you prove to the Policia Federeal that the unit is not "ilegal" in Mexico?
You probably will need to get a decal.

And I wouldn't trust a transito to know that either or they would use it as an excuse for extortion.
I don't doubt that it's true but what a silly idea.- So the TIP is issued and is on the phone.

navegator - Yeah, I guess I could have dispensed with the acronym and just written it out. but this being a Mexico forum I thought people knew about the TIP. Anyways, thanks for the help guys and the Q code mention, Playaboy.
- Just make sure you have the Q code. That is what they use for verification.

Not so puzzling, if you've never heard of a TIP, except in a restaurant.
Wow, some puzzling replies.
Since this is on the MEXICO section, a TIP is a Temporary Vehicle Importation Permit:

Sorry, I don't have an answer to the OP's question, but it IS a very reasonable one.
Glad the OP figured it out though.- Hang on, I just found what I was looking for. Apparently the TIP is sent out to your E-mail and no physical window holograms are sent out any more. OK, no more confusion for you guys, you can all relax again. Thanks for your help wolf10.
- What I'm talking about is a Temporary Import Permit for your vehicle. I heard the old window stickers were gone and the new TIPs were accessible through a phone app...??.
