One may temporarily enter the 'Zona Frontera', or frontier zone, of Mexico without any paperwork other than your passport, which will be needed to get any more permanent documents, such as visas or temporary import papers for your car, the 'Importada Temporal'. These would be needed to travel any further into Mexico and probably for a longer stay in the Zona Frontera. The 'Importada Temporal' remains in effect, regardless of its expiration date, as long as you remain in Mexico and maintain legal immigration status.
