On November 19, 2025, the official decree that reforms the Mexican Customs Law was published on the DOF (Mexican official gazette). This new law will become effective on January 1st, 2026. The reform represents a transformation for the current Mexican Customs systems, as well as for the subjects of international trade operations, introducing, modifying and derogating obligations. A summary of some of the main changes that this reform contains are the following:

  • Creation of agreements between the Customs Authorities and the Digital Transformation and Telecommunications Agency for data analysis.
  • Recinto Fiscalizado Estrategico (Estratigic Foreign Trade Zone) is now operating under the duty deferral program.
