Additionally, visa is not required for holders of residence permits issued by El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua; or U.S. Green Cards with a U.S. Re-entry Permit (I-571), regardless of nationality.

The time period for the visa, however, applies to the total time spent in any of the four countries without leaving the CA-4 area.[9]
