11. American Citizens traveling to Mexico.

Angler Expeditions would like to make travelers aware that special provisions come into force when an adult American citizen leaves the country accompanied by a child (17years or under). There is a requirement to present a notarized letter from the other parent (or both parents if the adult is not one of the child's parents) authorizing them to have custody and permission to take the young person out of the USA. Without this letter, you will be denied entry to Mexico. Angler Expeditions will not be responsible for any liability or loss of any airline expense, accommodation, etc. should this occur. In these circumstances this is one of the "necessary travel documents" mentioned in point #12 below.
