Good Info for Gringos

ATTENTION FOREIGNERS There are approximately 140,000 people living in Rosarito Beach, a sparkling jewel-by-the-sea, of which about 14,000 are foreign residents, most of whom have concerns and questions about such issues as property, rentals, medical, dental, visas, pets and vets to name a few. There is a municipal organization here called the Foreign Residents Affairs Office (FRAO), the only one of its kind in all of Mexico. That is where foreigners can get the information they need. FRAO was created to assist foreigners integrate comfortably into this rapidly growing community. Just let FRAO know what your concerns are – what information you need - and they will do their best to get answers or they will put you in touch with reliable expertise. You can e-mail your questions to FRAO at assistance@rosarito.org FRAO also offers foreigners the opportunity to take an active part in this community. Through interactions with local societies and charitable organizations, FRAO offers an outreach to various projects, several of which are staffed by volunteers. If you were involved in your community in your home country you might want to become similarly involved here and volunteer some of your time. Whether a foreigner chooses to stay for just a few days, a few weeks, or a long term residency, the first thing they should do is visit the Director of the FRAO, located on Benito Juarez Blvd. no. 907 room 14 in the Central Oceana Plaza building. Office hours are from 8:30 am ‘til 5:00 pm Mondays through Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tel: 661-612-0396.
