Overview
- The Ministry of Security formalized the Federal Route Control Program for Sporting Events (PROFERED) through Resolution 233/2026 published in the Official Gazette.
- Housed in the Interjurisdictional Transfers Coordination Unit under the National Security Secretariat, the program centralizes planning and operations across agencies.
- Security forces are authorized to run preventive checkpoints on national routes, terminals and other access points, stop vehicles carrying fans, and block items deemed risky even if not illegal.
- Findings of weapons, narcotics or intoxication during controls will be referred to judicial authorities, with the migration service engaged in international fixtures when irregular status is detected.
- Gendarmería and the Sports Events Security Directorate will draft a specific operating protocol, and the resolution states the rollout does not require additional public spending.
