International trade and customs

‘Combining legal rigour with a practical and proactive mindset’, EC Rubio is sought after to handle complex international trade matters, particularly regarding North American trade. The practice offers comprehensive advice to foreign clients on international trade structures, alongside tax and customs implications. Further expertise includes free trade agreements, customs audits, litigation and antidumping investigations, handled by a deep bench of partners, operating across multiple offices. Team leaders in Mexico City include Juan Carlos Partida, who is experienced in trade remedies and antidumping investigations, Eduardo David, who represents foreign exporters in antidumping and countervailing cases, and Arturo Bañuelos, who acts as counsel in the design of international structures. In Juárez, Felipe Mendoza is distinguished in manufacturing operations and customs savings. Fernando Holguín holds similar expertise and also advises on free trade agreements and customs valuation. Following the integration of Fegamo y Vasaf in April 2024, the Monterrey office is led by new addition Salvador Garza Montemayor and is closely supported by David Ken Fujii. The team’s bench is reinforced by its associates, with Luis Delgado (Juárez) standing out for his contributions on IMMEX, VAT certification, and customs compliance matters.
