Turned Away at Guatemal Border - Mesilla
I thought I should share this info as it may help somebody else, and possibly somebody would have some advice.
I attempted to cross the border yesterday to Guatemala and was turned away because they would not accept my Memorandum Title as proof of ownership. It is an official, original document from the state of Ohio but because I financed a portion of the motorcycle the bank holds the real title until I pay in full. When preparing for the trip I asked about this and was told it would work as it states i am the owner and it is a document from the state. Not in Guatemala, and as far as I can tell there's no way around it, geographically and figuratively.
I am in San Cristobal de Las Casas trying to figure my next move, I am supposed to meet my family in Costa Rica on Tuesday morning! Any help or advice would be appreciated, and I hope this helps future travelers.
Thanks! Greg
