About

Provided by Galicia Abogados, S.C.

Our Customs and International Trade practice is where Mexico's global trade strategy gets built, turning IMMEX, PROSEC, and Mexico's trade agreement network into a competitive advantage for manufacturers, exporters, and cross-border investors.

We're pioneers, not followers: the team that developed the PROSEC Program for clean and renewable power, and a trusted voice at the negotiating table in Free Trade Agreement talks, including Mexico's own "Cuarto de Junto." From tariff classification and antidumping defense to import/export compliance embedded in M&A, project finance, and infrastructure deals, we cover the full trade lifecycle other firms treat as an afterthought.

As nearshoring reshapes supply chains across oil & gas, automotive, electronics, and retail, we're the practice guiding clients through relocation, restructuring, and expansion, with the regulatory foresight to anticipate how stakeholders and authorities will respond before the strategy is even executed.
