Mexico is weighing plans to impose stricter trade measures on selected Chinese products and other imports, including additional trade restrictions on some goods and higher import taxes on others, according to four people familiar with the matter.
The potential steps involve new anti-dumping measures for certain products, as well as adjustments to existing tariffs. The move comes while negotiations involving the United States and other partners under the North American trade framework continue at a slow pace. Mexico’s consideration of these changes also aligns with President Claudia Sheinbaum’s broader trade approach, including efforts to extend the USMCA agreement for multiple years and to expand domestic manufacturing capacity.
Bloomberg and the South China Morning Post both describe the same core policy concept and the same sourcing—people close to the deliberations—without detailing which specific product categories would be affected, the timing, or the expected impact on imports.
