Overview

• A federal judge, Oswaldo Rivera González, granted the first provisional suspensions to two citizens challenging the biometric CURP; a hearing on a possible definitive suspension is set for September 1.
• Collegiate tribunals in Querétaro and Yucatán also issued provisional suspensions that prevent authorities from requiring biometrics in the cases before them, citing the absence of clear protection protocols.
• Renapo reports about 27 million people have completed the biometric CURP process and plans to begin emailing the digital document in mid‑October for printing with security features.
• Officials continue to describe enrollment as voluntary and consent‑based, even as the reform text establishes the biometric CURP as the national identification document with obligatory acceptance.
• Operational pilots and registrations proceed on a dual track with ongoing legal challenges, meaning authorities cannot compel biometric data from the protected petitioners but the broader rollout continues.
