To be fair, Mexico is a full member of IEC and is a P-member (i.e.
actively contributing ) on 32 Technical Committees. There are nearly 200
committees, so it does take a long time to catch up with the countries
that have been members since 1910, even if we consider only EMC and safety.

My experience is that they are way behind on harmonization of
requirements with the EN/IEC technical requirements. They are working
to come into the 21^st century but will, in the end, require national
NOM certification even if it is to the EN/IEC requirements; they have
allowed some simpler paths in the past but these seem to be phasing
out and replaced by NOM. Unfortunately, the NOM certification is only
a 1 year certification and it has to be renewed each year (maybe even
retesting); presumably this is in lieu of factory follow-up to
maintain the certification. Further, if your product has a radio
(wireless, Bluetooth, etc) it requires Mexican testing, approvals and
registration.
From what I see, every (developing) country wants to get into the cert
& registration game. This has all been made easier by the development
of IEC standards which are being harmonized for the major markets and
all are easily adopted by additional countries (very little
requirements development cost, all borne by the big boys in the IEC
committees). However, in order to have some control it is
straightforward to develop a bureaucracy to administer local
certification and registration to use their mark. If the country
doesn’t have local qualified folks to deal with this, just implement
internal test houses for safety , EMC and everything else then require
that all product be tested in country to get their mark (until the lab
staff is fully qualified) after which MRAs can be developed to accept
outside work to get local acceptance. The power supply for your laptop
shows the path that everything is on.

*Subject:* [PSES] Mexico compliance approval for IT equipment
Hello group,
does anybody know if it there is any way to bring IT Equipment into
the Mexican market without NOM certificate only based on CE marking
and CE test documentation?
