Mexico Says It Has Simplified 60% of Federal Procedures as New Digital Portals Go Live

The reforms aim to cut steps and speed approvals to boost investment and citizen access to services while officials pivot to building public trust and onboarding local governments.

Overview

  • Officials reported in mid‑June that 3,497 of 5,594 federal procedures have been intervened, representing 60% progress, and that 1,711 redundant procedures have been eliminated.
  • The Ventanilla Digital de Inversiones is operational with 18 states integrated and reduces business steps for company formation, construction and operation while offering an accelerated review for strategic projects.
  • The Plataforma Nacional del Registro Civil begins operations on June 22 to allow online corrections, issuance and CURP certification with typical resolution times of about five business days.
  • A first release of the Ventanilla Única de Trámites de Comercio Exterior centralizes Economy, SAT and customs paperwork into a single expediente to avoid repeated submissions.
  • Authorities report strong portal use with about 56 million users and roughly 24 million Llave MX accounts but say the main near‑term challenges are gaining citizen trust, ensuring digital inclusion for older and rural users, and completing municipal and state onboarding to meet targets for end‑2026 and Q1 2027.
