The Mexico national football team (Spanish: Selección de fútbol de México) represents Mexico in men's international football and is governed by the Federación Mexicana de Fútbol (English: Mexican Football Federation). It has been a member of FIFA since 1929 and a founding member of CONCACAF since 1961.

From 1946 to 1961, it was a member of NAFC, the former governing body of football in North America and a predecessor confederation of CONCACAF, and also a member of PFC, which was a unified confederation of the Americas.

Mexico has qualified to seventeen World Cups and has qualified consecutively since 1994, making it one of six countries to do so. Mexico played France in the first match of the first World Cup on 13 July 1930. Mexico's best progression in World Cups has been reaching the quarter-finals in both the 1970 and 1986 World Cups, both times as host. They will play host for the third time in 2026.

Mexico is the most successful national team in its confederation with 15 official continental titles, winning 13 titles in CONCACAF's premier continental competition (3 CONCACAF Championship titles and 10 CONCACAF Gold Cup titles), one CONCACAF Nations League and one CONCACAF Cup. Globally, Mexico is the only national team from CONCACAF and the only non-European or South American team to have won an official worldwide FIFA competition for senior national teams, winning the FIFA Confederations Cup in 1999. Regionally, it also won two NAFC Championship titles (organized by NAFC, the former confederation for the North American zone), one North American Nations Cup (organized by NAFU), and two gold medals at the Central American and Caribbean Games.

It is one of eight national teams to have won two of the three most important worldwide football competitions that are recognized and endorsed by FIFA (World Cup, Confederations Cup, and Olympic football tournament), having won the 1999 Confederations Cup and the 2012 Olympic football tournament. Although Mexico is under the jurisdiction of CONCACAF, the national team was invited since 1993 to participate in the Copa América, which is CONMEBOL's top continental competition, finishing runners-up twice (1993 and 2001), and obtaining third place in three editions.
