How to send a fax to mexico
Its easy to send a fax to Mexico from the US on a traditional fax machine – just enter the number as follows:
011-52-(number you want to fax in Mexico)
52 is the country code for Mexico and you must dial 011 for the international access number to call from the US. Be sure to add a “9″ if you normally need one to access a line outside of your company’s phone switch.
It may be necessary to insert a pause in your dialing sequence after the “011″ to allow the phone network time to connect you to an exchange. This differs by model and make of machine, but may be a comma or “#” sign inserted into the number.
If you receive a bad connection, you may need to reduce the baud rate on your machine to ensure a noise free transmission.
It can be expensive to send a fax to Mexico, if you do it often it would be best to use an international phone card or join one of the online services for a free trial then cancel if you no longer need the service.
Send a fax to Mexico with email
Another option is to sign up for a fax to email service such as Efax or MyFax. These services allow you to send unlimited international faxes simply through your regular email for cheaper than a single long distance phone call to Mexico or other international numbers.
