I first read it on an expat site, just for residency though. Then I went to our .gov site and read it there. No mention of exact purpose though. Then I found out that my birth certificate isn't valid to be Apostilled.
So I asked at the Mexican Consular's office. Was told I need it apostilled.
I reiterated that I'm just going for a visit 30-45 days, no business involved.

I've been to Mexico about a hundred times and have never been asked for it. I did, have to get an apostille birth certificate to present to another country (the Netherlands) when I was filling out the paperwork to become a permanent resident there.

If you have a valid US passport with at least 6 months remaining from your date of entry, that will suffice.
See http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/mexic...-visa-etc.html.
You can also use IATA TIMATIC as offered by Star Alliance to enter your details and verify the requirements for entry: http://www.staralliance.com/en/services/visa-and-health
