Manufacturing, tax, institutional, and business-development coordination — organized around your project.
01 / Manufacturing & trade
IMMEX program support
Make your manufacturing or export-services plan ready for Mexico. We help assess the appropriate IMMEX modality, organize the application file, and coordinate the operational, customs, and administrative work needed to support an authorization request.
How we can help
Project and operating-model assessment
Application documentation and adviser coordination
Ongoing reporting and compliance-readiness support
Choose an operating model with a clear understanding of responsibilities. We help evaluate shelter arrangements, coordinate discussions with potential providers, and align the commercial, administrative, and operational scope before a project moves forward.
How we can help
Shelter versus standalone operating-model review
Provider evaluation and scope-of-service coordination
Implementation planning and responsibility mapping
Treat certification as a coordinated workstream, separate from IMMEX authorization. We help organize the fiscal, customs, inventory, and operational information relevant to an application, with follow-up support for requirements and ongoing obligations.
How we can help
Eligibility and documentation-gap assessment
Coordination of the application and supporting evidence
Renewal planning and ongoing compliance coordination
Build a claim around the tax position and its supporting evidence. We help review eligible VAT and ISR credit balances, reconcile the underlying records, prepare supporting files, and coordinate refund applications and responses with the relevant advisers.
How we can help
Pre-operational VAT review and investment documentation
Operational VAT and ISR credit-balance reconciliation
Application files, authority requests, and status follow-up
VAT and ISR are assessed separately. Refund eligibility depends on the company’s credit balances, activities, documentation, and applicable requirements; investment alone does not establish an ISR refund entitlement.
Bring the right stakeholders into the conversation. We help identify relevant institutions, prepare the project narrative, arrange introductions, and coordinate discussions around permits, investment conditions, cooperation agreements, and business development.
How we can help
Government and chamber stakeholder mapping
Meeting preparation and institutional liaison
Agreement coordination and follow-through on commitments
Connect your international ambition with the realities of the Mexican market. We support opportunity identification, partner assessment, market positioning, proposal structuring, and deal coordination, connecting strategic decisions with day-to-day execution.
How we can help
Opportunity and strategic-partner identification
Market positioning and commercial introductions
Proposal structuring, negotiation support, and project coordination
Supply chain and logistics coordination alongside your market-entry and operating plans.
Warehousing & distribution

Freight forwarding
Align shipment planning, freight partners, and cross-border documentation with the needs of your business.
Inventory management
Improve visibility of inventory movements and the records needed for operational and customs coordination.
Supply chain consulting
Review supplier relationships, delivery requirements, and operational dependencies as your project takes shape.
Reverse logistics
Plan returns, recovery, and the coordination of goods moving back through your supply chain.
Last-mile delivery
Connect distribution planning with the final delivery requirements of your customers and local partners.
A few useful answers
Clarity before commitment.
Are IMMEX authorization and VAT / IEPS certification the same?
They are separate processes. IMMEX is a program authorization associated with eligible manufacturing and export-services operations. VAT / IEPS certification is a distinct tax and customs registration with its own requirements. We help coordinate the two workstreams where relevant to your project.
Can VAT be recovered before operations begin?
Eligible VAT on pre-operational expenses and investments may be reviewed for a refund under the applicable conditions. The investment project, intended taxable activities, supporting records, and company-specific circumstances are part of that assessment.
Does income tax recovery work like VAT recovery?
VAT and income tax follow different rules. An ISR refund requires a valid credit balance and the appropriate tax filings and evidence. A startup investment or expense does not, by itself, create an income-tax refund entitlement.
Can you coordinate a project beyond the initial setup?
Yes. The engagement can extend from entry strategy and establishment into institutional liaison, compliance coordination, tax-recovery support, business development, and supply chain operations. The scope is defined around the stage and needs of your business.
