By World Triathlon Admin | 03 Apr, 2006

Due to the priority policy of the USA on their inland security and due to increasing problems on the US-Mexico border, the Mexican Government has tightened the issuing of VISAS to enter our country, so all of those athletes that will be needing a VISA to come to race in Mazatlan, need
to send the following paparwork immediately.   This is urgent,
otherwise it will be very difficult to get the VISAS on time.

FMTRI (Mexican Triathlon Federation) should RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING DOCUMENTATION BEFORE APRIL 5TH, 14:00 MEXICO TIME. REQUESTS RECEIVED AFTER THIS DATE WILL NOT BE ATTENDED.
