Opportunities -------------- Mexico offers considerable potential for international e-commerce retailers. Consumers are increasingly comfortable purchasing online and exploring products from overseas brands, creating opportunities across fashion, beauty, electronics, homeware and lifestyle categories. The market also benefits from a growing omnichannel retail environment, with consumers combining online research, marketplace shopping and physical retail experiences. For international businesses, providing a convenient purchasing experience, competitive delivery options and reliable parcel tracking can help build consumer confidence and encourage repeat purchases. Seasonal shopping events, including Hot Sale, El Buen Fin and Buen Fin’s wider promotional period, also provide opportunities for retailers to increase visibility and drive sales. Logistics ----------- When calculating the cost of shipping goods to Mexico, businesses need to consider the parcel’s weight, dimensions, contents, country of origin and declared customs value. Customs duties and taxes may apply, and the applicable charges depend on the product classification and import procedure. Mexico has specific customs requirements for courier and express shipments. Import declarations require the recipient’s Mexican tax identification number (RFC), and missing or incorrect information can delay customs clearance. Businesses should therefore ensure that accurate recipient and shipment details are supplied before dispatch. Mexico’s courier import rules were also updated in August 2025, introducing a 33.5% global tax rate for many non-USMCA shipments processed through the simplified courier procedure, with different treatment for qualifying shipments of USMCA origin. ![Shipping box](/build/assets/box-2-DAnn4FuH.svg) The essentials ---------------- Shipping Cost From £31.13 for a 1kg parcel - see our [shipping rates](/pricing/samos-shipping-rates) Transit Times 2-6 working days Maximum Dimensions 100cm x 43cm x 43cm Maximum Weight 20kg Maximum Content Value Subject to customs clearance procedure and applicable import regulations Low-Value Limit USD 50 for qualifying tax- and duty-free imports; different thresholds and conditions apply to other shipments Duty Depends on product classification, origin and customs procedure --- Good to know ------------ All commercial shipments entering Mexico must comply with the country’s customs and import regulations. Accurate product descriptions, declared values, tariff classifications and recipient details are important for smooth customs clearance. Mexico requires the recipient’s Mexican tax identification number (RFC) for courier simplified clearance. Certain products may require additional permits, certificates or compliance with Mexican Official Standards (NOMs). Restrictions and additional requirements can apply to products including food, cosmetics, medicines, electronics and other regulated goods. Retailers should check the requirements for their specific products before shipping.
