Overview
- In a 7–2 ruling, the SCJN revoked Uber’s amparo and validated Article 307 TER, ending a multi‑year challenge to the capital’s platform charge.
- The measure sets a monthly 2% fee on the total commissions that apps collect per operation and is legally intransferable to users, merchants or couriers.
- Dissenting ministers Irving Espinosa Betanzo and Giovanni Figueroa Mejía argued the provision functions as an imprecise tax that risks violating legality and proportionality.
- The decision contrasts with a prior Second Chamber ruling reported in June that found the charge unconstitutional, renewing debate over legal certainty and enforcement.
- Delivery worker group RUM protested, warning of income hits in practice, while industry association Alianza In México called the policy regressive and flagged potential T‑MEC concerns.
