Legal and Regulatory Considerations for Cross-Border Transactions

Engaging in cross-border transactions between Mexico and the U.S. requires careful attention to both countries’ legal and regulatory frameworks. For example, businesses must comply with laws governing foreign investment, tax regulations, trade agreements, and labor laws, among other considerations. Our firm assists clients in key areas such as:

Foreign Investment Compliance – Advising on Mexico’s Ley de Inversión Extranjera (Foreign Investment Law) and industry-specific restrictions.
Regulatory Approvals – Ensuring compliance with government agencies such as Secretaría de Economía (Ministry of Economy) and Comisión Federal de Competencia Económica (COFECE) for antitrust matters.
Tax and Customs Regulations – Navigating value-added tax (IVA), customs duties, and transfer pricing rules affecting cross-border operations.

By proactively addressing these legal requirements, we help businesses avoid regulatory pitfalls that could disrupt operations or lead to financial penalties.

Structuring and Negotiating Mexico Cross-Border Agreements

A well-structured contract is critical for protecting business interests in cross-border transactions. Our firm negotiates, drafts, and reviews contracts to ensure they are enforceable, compliant with Mexican law, and structured to mitigate risk. We assist with:

Supply and Distribution Agreements – Ensuring favorable terms for businesses engaging in cross-border trade.
Joint Ventures and Strategic Alliances – Structuring partnerships between U.S. and Mexican companies to leverage market opportunities.
Cross-Border Mergers and Acquisitions – Managing legal due diligence and compliance for companies expanding into or out of Mexico.

Each transaction is unique, and our team ensures that all contractual terms align with the client’s commercial objectives and legal obligations.

Real Estate and Infrastructure Investments – Advising on land acquisition, leasing agreements, and regulatory approvals.
Financing and Capital Transactions – Assisting with securing investment capital, structuring financing deals, and complying with tax regulations.

We ensure that businesses expanding into Mexico or the U.S. are positioned for success with legally sound investment strategies.

Trade and Customs Compliance in Cross-Border Transactions

Companies engaged in importing, exporting, and manufacturing in Mexico must comply with international trade agreements, customs regulations, and tax laws. Our firm advises businesses on:

USMCA Compliance – Ensuring adherence to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement for preferential trade benefits.
Customs and Import/Export Regulations – Managing import duties, maquiladora (IMMEX) program compliance, and customs clearance procedures.
