Customs and security are important at SJD Airport. The Mexican Customs Authorities at SJD Airport provide information (in Spanish) regarding imports to and exports from Mexico.
To ensure the safety of our customers and employees, SJD will no longer accept smart bags with non-removable lithium-ion batteries and they will not be permitted as carry-on or checked baggage flight.
Hoverboards or any lithium battery powered self-balancing personal transportation devices are also not permitted as both carry-on and checked baggage by all airlines.
Spare batteries for other devices, including approved fuel cells are permitted in carry-on baggage only. If your carry-on bag contains these items and is gate-checked, it must be removed and carried in the cabin.
