International trade law is one of the core areas of our firm. Particularly important is our expertise in handling NAFTA related matters. Mata & Asociados assists clients with a full range of importing and exporting activities. We are experts in helping foreign companies overcome barriers to entry in the Mexican marketplace. We have worked with every significant Mexican trade and customs statute and regulation.

The international trade & customs group has an extensive know-how in Mexico’s IMMEX program.

Our practice extends to all aspects of importing and exporting, ranging from rapid response to crisis situations (such as goods confiscated at the U.S.-Mexican border by the Mexican Customs Serviceand penalty proceedings) to counseling on tariff preference programs and compliance with customs and trade regulations. We also help companies with more traditional issues such as classification, valuation, and country of origin.

Experience includes:

  • IMMEX program.
  • Temporary imports or exports.
  • Mexican technical standards ( NOMs ).
  • Importation of hazardous substances.
  • Complex customs law issues.
  • Sanitary permits.
  • Labeling requirements.
