Overview
- Applicants must register in person at official INAPAM modules, which can be found through the Gobierno de México/Secretaría del Bienestar web locator using state, municipality and a reCAPTCHA check.
- Required documents commonly listed for 2025 include an official ID, CURP, a legible birth certificate, recent proof of address and passport-style photos, with some outlets noting a contact phone number.
- The trámite is free of charge, and outlets warn that people should not pay intermediaries or any fee to submit documents or receive the credential.
- If all documents are presented, media report the card is typically issued on the spot, with the locator providing each module’s address, hours and phone number for planning a visit.
- Most coverage states eligibility begins at age 60, one article opens by citing 65, and one outlet reports the card has no expiration, so readers are advised to verify age and validity details on the official INAPAM/Bienestar site.
