The government of Mexico has notified the World Trade Organization of proposed SAR requirements through the standard IFT-012-2019, which is scheduled to take effect on February 26, 2021 (one year after the initial publication date). Since Mexico just notified the WTO on February 1, 2021, there is a 60 day consultation period until April 2, 2021. Furthermore, the local organismos (cert bodies) and test labs have not yet gained proper accreditation through the Entidad Mexicana de Acreditación (EMA). Alternately, it is possible that assessment to the technical regulation DT-IFT-007 by “peritos,” or local IFT accredited experts, may replace testing and organismo certification until the local labs and organismos obtain proper accreditation.
