Mexico: Mexico Prohibits Use of U.S. Re-Export Sugar in IMMEX Program

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

On January 6, 2016, the Secretariat of Economy (SE) published a decree in the Diario Oficial (Federal Register) that modifies the Promotion of the Manufacturing, Maquiladora, and Export Services (IMMEX) program, under which U.S. sugar was imported into Mexico to be incorporated into other products and then re-exported, primarily to the United States. This revised regulation specifically prohibits sugar that benefits from the U.S. Sugar Re-export Program from also using the IMMEX program.
