FMM tourist card experience please

[mr bill]

Doyle - if you have 'time left' on your tourist card I thnk the answer is NO simply because you have 'time left' . Of course if your toursit card is expiring exactly at the moment you are turning it in it makes sense to request another but then think about it - if the maximum time allowed is 180 days and the requirement is that you LEAVE THE COUNTRY then that is what it means - so don't even bother asking. 3rd possibily is that your FMM is already expired - In that case Just leave.

What it all bolis down to is making things simple for immigration which means making things simple for your self - turn your card in - walk across the bridge [at least half way] and then come back and get a new card.
