Mexico Formalizes 40-Day Aguinaldo for Federal Workers in 2025

The DOF order authorizes payments starting November 10, leaving private‑sector rules untouched.

Overview

  • The presidential decree, signed by Claudia Sheinbaum and Finance Secretary Édgar Amador Zamora, was published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación for the 2025 fiscal year.
  • Eligibility covers federal public servants, members of the Servicio Exterior Mexicano, active military and Armed Forces personnel, certain contractors paid under Servicios Personales, and specified pensioners and beneficiaries.
  • Exclusions include workers hired under honorarios especiales and personnel engaged through technical‑training agreements with state governments.
  • Agencies may begin disbursements on November 10 with reporting indicating completion no later than December 20, and proportional amounts apply for those with less than a year of service.
  • The SHCP will issue implementation guidelines for federal entities, and Legislative, Judicial and autonomous bodies may use the decree as a reference while the private sector remains at a 15‑day minimum under the Federal Labor Law.
