Expat Entrepreneurs in Mexico: Puerto Vallarta

[@haroldmurphy5417]

I am Canadian and wife is Mexican. We will be moving there next summer from Alberta Canada. Cost of living here is very exspensive and looking to be in paradise like this couple.

fantastic, good luck and let us know if you have any questions. ([e-mail])... you'll have an advantage as your wife speaks spanish.... we're still learning!

Ive been searching for THIS all of my life. Provincial life style.

[@kathleennaomiatkins]

we had been wanting a different life for a while too... it can happen if that's what you want ;)

[@cynthiaalpenia3948]

Excellent interview, Todd and Kathleen. It's wonderful to have you as a part of our very varied Puerto Vallarta community. If you figure out how to own a business and be "semi-retired", let me know!

[@ronstorey3369]

[@alain0323]

Curious about residency or visa requirements required to purchase a business in MX. Thanks in advance...

Ben, here's a link to our Immigration section on our website: www.expatsinmexico.com/mexico-immigration/. It will answer many of your questions. Also check out our blogs and articles on starting a business at expatsinmexico.com.

[@kathleennaomiatkins]

Sorry Ben, I just saw your question... i believe you need to have a temporary or permanent visa (we chose a temporary visa so that we could drive to mexico with our car). With anything here though, I definitely recommend asking a business attorney and/or an immigration attorney because the laws can and do change often.

Ben, you can find information at www.expatsinmexico.com. Just click on Immigration in the navigation bar.

Hello Marilynn, our chocolate shop is Xocodiva - www.xocodiva-pv.com. Calle Aquiles Serdan 368 in Old Town. It's a production kitchen for our chocolate and ice cream, so we can't open every day... we're open to the public MWF 11-4 and we're at the Saturday market in Old Town as well. See you soon!
