At the end of the 19th century, a group of Chinese workers who were developing the western United States moved to Mexico.

In 1899, the Chinese and Mexican governments signed the Maritime Navigation Friendship Agreement, which stipulated that citizens of China and Mexico could freely enter and exit each other's countries and find free employment.

After the official opening of navigation between China and Mexico in 1902, Chinese people entered Mexico in droves to engage in commercial and agricultural production.

Most of the early overseas Chinese who arrived in Mexico were from Guangdong.

In the past 20 years, investment immigrants from Hong Kong and Taiwan and people visiting relatives and friends from the mainland have entered Mexico one after another.

It is estimated that the total number of overseas Chinese in Mexico is about 70,000, mainly living in Tijuana, Mexico City and Mexicali.
