Effective date: January 1, 2025
Tariff rate: 19% of the imported product's value.
Applies to: Goods imported from countries without trade agreements with Mexico<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shein y Temu:
Known for offering affordable products, Shein and Temu may face significant challenges as a result of the new tariff. This measure is expected to increase prices for Mexican consumers purchasing products through these platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although Amazon operates locally in Mexico, imported products originating from countries without trade agreements with Mexico will also be subject to the new tariff. This could affect the variety and competitiveness of internationally sourced products available to Mexican customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Supporting Domestic Industries
Industries such as the textile sector, which have been heavily impacted by low-cost imports, could benefit from a more balanced competitive environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new tariff is also intended to increase government tax revenue, helping strengthen Mexico's economy and public finances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022\u2060 \u2060Textile products imported from China may be subject to tariffs of up to 35%. China accounts for more than one-third of Mexico's textile imports.
\u2022\u2060 \u2060Mexico's Tax Administration Service (SAT) has introduced new regulations aimed at preventing unfair international trade practices and improving tax collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
