Dear Sirs,

Commercial Information Circular No. 1055/2017

Mexico : Labelling Requirements for Textiles and Apparel

The Mexican government has recently updated its care labelling requirements for textile and apparel products by requiring such products to incorporate the care symbols of NMX-A-3758-INNTEX-2014 rather than those of NMX-A-240-INNTEX-2009. The new care symbol standard is identical to the most recent ISO care labelling standard (i.e. ISO 3758:2012). The new standard is effective from 15 October 2017.

2.For details, traders are advised to consult their importers in Mexico and/or the above Mexican notice (in Spanish) available at: http://dof.gob.mx/nota_detalle.php?codigo=5494060&fecha=16/08/2017.
