The Mexico Tourism Board continued its efforts to corral a stronger visitor market by opening a new on-line service for meeting and convention planners.
Users must register with a name and password to access the Meetings and Conventions section at www.visitmexico.com. Users can submit online proposals.
The service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The Mexico Tourism Board last year became the first country in the world to introduce Zero Tax, an amendment excluding organizers of Mexican events from having to pay a VAT tax.
Mexican public and private organizations are working together to make the area more competitive for international events.
