INTRODUCTION.
All goods and products imported into Mexico must comply with any applicable standards and labeling requirements.
Applicable standards and labeling requirements are listed by harmonized tariff system (HS or HTS) code.
Mandatory and proposed standards are published by the Mexican Government in the Diario Oficial de la Federacion (Official Gazette) - the Mexican equivalent of the US Federal Register.
These are published in the form of a Norma Oficial Mexicana (NOM) (Official Mexican Standard), or a Proyecto de Norma Oficial Mexicana (Proposed Official Mexican Standard).
