IMPORTING TO MEXICO


information it provides will be useful to check against customs’ offi cial trademark registry. T e Mexican customs authorities


implemented this registry in order to identify and detect counterfeit goods. If a legitimate source of the goods is not confi rmed, authorities contact the trademark owner’s legal representatives in order to initiate the corresponding actions. For that reason, the information that has to


be provided according to the rules, together with the provisions that govern the customs trademark registry, make it possible to review and identify possibly counterfeit goods when they enter Mexico. T e more information that can be provided, the more opportunities our authorities have in order to block the commercialisation and entrance of


illegal


goods into the Mexican market. As a result, as we explained earlier, several issues must be taken into consideration when trying to import goods to Mexico. Having a clear and precise knowledge of the applicable provisions and requirements is bound to determine whether an import will be successful and its chances of conquering the Mexican market. 
