The American Citizen Services (ACS) Unit of the U.S. Consulate General Guadalajara provides a wide range of services to U.S. citizens visiting and residing in Mexico. We have a Social Security office onsite, we can assist you with voting in U.S. elections by absentee ballot, help you locate your IRS tax forms, and register for the Selective Service.
The American Citizen Services Unit cannot act as a travel agent, bank, lawyer, investigator, or law enforcement agent. Please do not expect the ACS Unit to find you employment, obtain housing or driving permits, act as interpreters, search for missing luggage, settle disputes with hotel managers or pay any bills.
The U.S. Department of State and embassies and consulates abroad are charged with providing consular protection and services to United States citizens abroad. The Department of State maintains a web site, http://travel.state.gov/ that outlines services and provides general information for American Citizens traveling and residing abroad.
