Use a Trusted Freight Forwarding and
Logistics Provider to Ship to Mexico
Everything you to know about shipping products into Mexico
How Can your Company Ship into Mexico
Shipping into Mexico can present challenges for foreigners, because the importation process differs from many other countries. Finding a single provider that understands your needs, applicable legal requirements and regulatory factors is rare. Most freight forwarders and customs brokers are not able to properly support foreign clients who are not accustomed to operating in Mexico.
MexInc’s vision is to permit foreigners to ship into Mexico easily and avoid bureaucratic headaches. Unless shipping small parcels, shipping to Mexico requires an importer of record. MexInc will register your company as an importer of record, coordinate shipment from anywhere in the world, handle customs clearance and deliver your products to their final destination in Mexico.
Additionally, MexInc provides warehousing, 3PL warehousing, distributionsolutions, and reverse logistics.
What does Customs Clearance in Mexico Involve?
The main steps in customs brokerage involve the following:
Delivery of products to the port of entry, which will most likely be Manzanillo, Nuevo Laredo, Veracruz or an interior port of entry such as an airport.
Preparation of your packing list, customs invoice. This is the responsibility of the exporter.
The customs broker will classify the products according to the corresponding tariff code. You should be prepared to present safety data sheets, technical data sheets, user manuals or other information to assist with this classification.
The broker will prepare a proforma customs clearance fiscal invoice called a pedimento de importación outlining all applicable regulations, taxes, duties and essential information for electronic submission to the Mexican customs authorities.
The broker will request payment of customs costs, service payments and duties, which will need to be deposited directly to the customs broker’s local bank account.

Become an Importer of Record
If you will be engaging in continuous or frequent importation activities, you will want to obtain a Mexican RFC ID.
MexInc makes this process easy and can be completed in 5 weeks.
Forward final assembly resolution document to client for signature and execution
Involves forming a simple, straightforward legal entity such as an LLC in Mexico, permitting your company to act as the importer of record and register for Padron de Importadores.
Use a third-party Importer of Record
If you will be engaging in continuous or frequent importation activities, you will want to obtain a Mexican RFC ID.
This means products are delivered to customs FOB, and the distributor or local party takes legal custody of the shipment and imports your products under their importer of record.
This option is preferable if you will be importing a limited number of shipments per year or if you won’t be involved directly with the sale or marketing of your products in Mexico.
