Mexico Launches Sector Consultations for 2026 USMCA Review With CCE Backing

October meetings seek a unified national stance to guide Mexico’s approach to the 2026 review.

Overview

  • Economy Ministry opened a monthlong process with 30 strategic sectors at its headquarters, with parallel forums planned across all 32 states.
  • The effort aims to deliver a broad diagnosis and concrete proposals to shape Mexico’s position ahead of the July 1, 2026 trilateral review.
  • Automotive leaders forecast a difficult negotiation as partners may push to tighten rules of origin given Asian component content in vehicles.
  • Heavy‑vehicle makers flagged uncertainty around a potential 25% U.S. tariff on trucks, with industry evaluating impacts and no relocation plans announced, according to Concamin.
  • Marcelo Ebrard met senators to coordinate the legislative role in upcoming consultations, noting that about 85% of Mexico–U.S. trade already moves tariff‑free and that the CCE will accompany the process.
