Which registry do I need to import footwear or uniforms?

Besides the general registry, Sector 10 (footwear) and, for garments and uniforms, Sector 11 (textiles and apparel) of Mexico's Specific-Sector Importers Registry. Your agent checks it before you buy.

What label does imported footwear need?

The one NOM-020-SCFI-1997 requires: in Spanish, with upper, lining and sole materials, country of origin, importer details and size. The safest route is labeling at the factory with approved text.

Is footwear still subject to estimated prices?

Yes. In September 2026 Mexico repealed the estimated-price annex for textiles and apparel, but footwear remains under the mechanism. If you declare below the estimated price, the tax difference must be guaranteed.

Can you deliver uniforms in phases?

Yes. We plan shipping calendars for uniform contracts with partial deliveries by work site, keeping registry and documents current for every delivery.

What language will you speak with me?

Yours. We speak your language: multilingual agents who coordinate with your supplier and with you.

Apparel, footwear and uniform logistics

Fabric, apparel, footwear and corporate or institutional uniforms, from the factory to your warehouse or work site. We check registry, labeling and value before the cargo leaves.

We operate in the world's busiest international ports and at every customs office in Mexico.

We speak your language: multilingual agents handle your shipment end to end.

We've moved fabric, apparel, footwear and uniforms, and we know these loads rarely fail at sea: they fail at customs. Footwear has its own registry, NOM-020 labeling and estimated prices; uniforms have NOM-004 labeling and phased deliveries. We check it all at origin, where fixing things costs less.
