Overview

• Health regulators Cofepris and Brazil’s Anvisa signed a memorandum to pursue mutual recognition, speeding sanitary registrations, facilitating clinical trials and coordinating certification of pharmaceutical plants, including in third countries.
• Birmex and Brazil’s Fundação Fiocruz agreed to cooperate on producing vaccines, active ingredients and strategic medicines—such as coagulation factors, albumins and immunoglobulins—and to coordinate a dengue response using Instituto Butantan’s vaccine and shared surveillance.
• A Mexico–Brazil Bilateral Health Committee will be created to meet monthly and track implementation of the new health commitments.
• A joint declaration signed at Palacio Nacional also covered cooperation in agriculture, investment promotion and biocombustibles.
• Both sides set a calendar to revise and expand the ACE 53 and ACE 55 economic accords with a planned signing around mid‑2026, while ruling out a full free‑trade agreement for now as a Brazilian business delegation of about 200 executives engaged in talks that included Embraer’s activity in Mexico.
