Import rules for spices in Mexico.
Rules last updated .
Authorities and standards
- SENASICA, plant health at the border
- Phytosanitary import certificate, through the VUCEM single window
- NOM-051-SCFI/SSA1-2010 for retail packs
What the importer and the lot need
SENASICA's requirements module has no entry for these spices from India, so the importer asks SENASICA for a requirements sheet before the first shipment.
The importer applies for the phytosanitary import certificate through VUCEM. A phytosanitary certificate issued in India travels with the lot.
The importer confirms any COFEPRIS sanitary requirements for the tariff code.
Labelling
NOM-051-SCFI/SSA1-2010
Applies to prepackaged retail packs, with the label in Spanish. Bulk shipments fall outside it.
What Mexico checks at the border
SENASICA sets the plant health conditions. The importer gets a phytosanitary import certificate through the VUCEM single window, and asks SENASICA for a requirements sheet where the spice has no listing for India.
Plant health conditions. This applies to every spice we ship to Mexico.
SENASICA sets the phytosanitary conditions for each product and origin. Your contract names the limit we test against.
