In order to make the Decree for the Promotion of the Manufacturing, Maquiladora and Export Services Industry (IMMEX Decree) consistent with the new General Import and Export Duties Law and the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), a number of the decree's annexes have been modified. Specifically:

  • references to the North American Free Trade Agreement have been substituted with references to the USMCA;
  • the Annex I tariff items (ie, goods that cannot be temporarily imported under the IMMEX Decree) have been updated; and
  • the Annex II tariff items (ie, goods that must comply with specific requirements to be temporarily imported (sensitive goods)) have been updated.
