Through Official Letter 516.2026.3304, dated October 12, 2026, and published by the National Foreign Trade Information Service (SNICE), the General Directorate for Trade Facilitation and Foreign Trade (DGFCCE) announced the email addresses designated for processing applications, inquiries, and submissions before that administrative unit.
The communication updates the contact channels published in Official Letter 516.2024.3045. Its purpose is to ensure that electronic submissions are routed correctly; it does not replace the requirements or formalities applicable to each procedure.
What did the DGFCCE announce in October 2026?
The authority published a directory of institutional email accounts organized by type of procedure: the Manufacturing, Maquiladora and Export Services Industry (IMMEX) and Sectoral Promotion (PROSEC) Programs, Mexican Official Standards, quotas, certificates of origin, automatic notices, prior permits, and public inquiries.

The directory includes additional accounts depending on the nature of the procedure. Therefore, before submitting documents or inquiries, companies must identify the specific address stated in the official letter and comply with the applicable provisions.
Implications for foreign trade procedures
Electronic submissions must comply with Rule 1.3.5 of the Ministry of Economy Rules Agreement and all other applicable provisions. The authority also clarified controls for sending attachments and obtaining acknowledgments of receipt.
For companies and foreign trade personnel, we recommend:
- Update internal contact directories and use the designated email account for each procedure or inquiry.
- Copy the DGFCCE general management address (dgfcce.gestion@economia.gob.mx) to obtain a tracking number, even when a dedicated account exists.
- When files exceed 20 MB, send them in numbered messages and identify the attachments in the corresponding submission letter.
- Verify receipt of the tracking number or acknowledgment; include the tracking number and applicant’s name in the subject line of follow-up emails.
Conclusions
The DGFCCE updated its contact email addresses for electronic procedures. Companies should consult the official directory, send each submission to the appropriate account, and retain the acknowledgment of receipt; otherwise, the filing may be deemed not submitted.
