Mexico recognizes marriages performed in other jurisdictions as long as the marriage was legal in the jurisdiction where it was performed. However, Mexico reserve the right to reject a marriage which is "against public policy" (e.g., incestuous or polygamous marriages). As for same-sex marriages, they are recognized by Mexico and all Mexican states, in accordance with a decision by the Mexican Supreme Court.
