How to avoid overstaying
- Go by your stamp or visa. The date the officer gives you is the one that counts, even if it is shorter than the maximum.
- Plan to leave a day or two early. With 90 days, book your exit before the last legal day so a cancelled flight doesn't push you over.
- Extend before you run out. Apply and pay at any SAIME office before the tourist card and entry stamp expire (up to 90 more days). Residents apply at the main SAIME office of their state.
