Your electricity bills are paid to a public utility Comision Federal Electricidad (CFE). Unless you are the first to occupy your office or living space you should receive a bill every two months. This bill can be paid at any branch of most major banks (the list is on the back of the invoice). It can also be paid directly at any one of their locations, which is also where one needs to go to apply for service. Their home page, at www.cfe.gob.mx.
Water
Water is paid directly to the Treasury of the Federal District, or to the treasury of the state where you live. Most state governments, including the District, allow you to pay at the branches of major banks. It is also charged once every two months.
Natural Gas
Natural gas, where required, is pumped from trucks that prowl the streets every few weeks (depending on the company and the area of town). Because there are a number of concessionaires it's best to ask the neighbors when they visit. Their rates are set by the government and the amount should be clearly stated somewhere on the outside of the vehicle.
I am always a little surprised at the number of people that we meet that believe Mexico is a bona fide tax haven. Mexico is a tax haven only to the extent that the country has not had the resources or will to enforce its own laws. In fact, the country has one of the lowest tax collections as a percentage of its GDP in Latin America.
Every country celebrates Christmas differently (if at all), in Mexico it is celebrated every year on December 25, but with some differences. There are manys holidays and festivites around Christmas time that take place uniquely in Mexico.
One of the most eagerly-anticipated (and occasionally dreaded) events for foreign residents in Mexico is a visit from family or friends. No doubt you will be itching for them to see the best of the city and its surroundings, to fall under the spell of this varied country's multiple charms, so that they develop an understanding of what keeps you so many miles from home.
You have an idea what your guests want out of their visit to Mexico, and how to help them get to where they want to go. Now you have to stock up and make sure your household is ready to receive the weary travelers.
The time of your guest's arrival to visit you in Mexico is approaching. Just a couple of days before their departure, if it is a long (especially transatlantic) flight and they are not experienced travelers, it may be helpful to advise them to drink plenty of liquids.
Very occasionally our foreign guests to Mexico may arrive by car or bus. If intrepid enough to do either, the host's burden is lessened as they are likely to know what they are doing or everyone can blame disasters on their youth.
