IFETEL published New Conformity Assessment Procedure on the Mexico Official Gazette on February 25,2020, which requires the holder of the Certificate of Conformity for NOM-208-SCFI-2016 being the real importer. Besides, the Certificate of Conformity , testing report and IFETEL certificate must be under the same holder (real importer). It will be enforced after 365 days of its publication. Local rep service will be no longer available. 

We would suggest that any new application from now on should be for the real importer.

We expect IFETEL may clarify more details when the time is closer to the enforcement date (February 25, 2021).

For more information, please feel free to contact us.
