Summary
Mexico’s Congress has proposed legislation that would significantly raise government fees for various immigration processes, including temporary and permanent residence permits, work authorizations, and related services. However, this proposal is not yet law.

For the fee increases to take effect, the bill must complete the full legislative process and be officially published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación. Until then, no official fee changes have been implemented.

If approved, the proposal could increase costs for employers managing inbound mobility to Mexico, especially those with large-scale or long-term assignments. Companies may want to review budgets for 2026 and consider filing under the current fee structure while it remains in effect.

Newland Chase is closely monitoring the situation with local experts. As of now, no fee changes have taken effect, and the timeline for potential implementation remains uncertain. Mobility managers and employers should continue using the current fee schedule and stay alert for official updates.
