Employer Registration Certificate (Constancia de Inscripción de Empleador)

Before a company may legally sponsor foreign employees in Mexico, it must obtain the Employer Registration Certificate issued by the National Immigration Institute (INM).

Our attorneys guide clients through every stage of the registration process, including:
• Determining eligibility requirements
• Preparing and reviewing supporting documentation
• Drafting and filing the application
• Managing communications with the INM
• Monitoring the progress of the application
• Providing regular updates throughout the process

The Employer Registration Certificate is the legal foundation that authorizes companies to sponsor foreign nationals for employment in Mexico.

Employer Registration Certificate Renewals

The Employer Registration Certificate is valid for one year and must be renewed within the statutory period following the company’s annual tax filing.

• Our attorneys assist clients with:
• Annual renewals
• Updates following corporate name changes
• Registered address modifications
• Changes to corporate purpose
• Corporate restructuring updates
• Compliance with ongoing immigration obligations

Maintaining a valid Employer Registration Certificate is essential for completing any immigration procedure before the National Immigration Institute.

Immigration Verification Visits

The National Immigration Institute (INM) may conduct Immigration Verification Visits at a company’s registered address to confirm compliance with Mexican immigration regulations.

Our attorneys assist employers before, during, and after these inspections by:
• Preparing documentation
• Reviewing immigration records
• Advising company representatives
• Responding to government requests
• Defending employers during administrative proceedings

Our preventive approach significantly reduces regulatory risks while ensuring businesses remain compliant with immigration requirements.

Work Visa Applications

Once the Employer Registration Certificate has been obtained or renewed, companies may begin the process of sponsoring foreign nationals through a Work Visa.

Our Immigration Attorneys provide comprehensive legal representation throughout every stage of the process, including:
• Employment offer preparation
• Work Visa applications
• Submission before the National Immigration Institute
• Case monitoring
• Government follow-up
• Legal guidance until visa approval

Our objective is to ensure foreign professionals are authorized to begin working in Mexico as efficiently as possible.

Temporary Resident Cards

After the foreign employee completes the visa interview at the corresponding Mexican Consulate abroad, our attorneys assist with the final immigration procedures required upon arrival in Mexico.

Our services include:
• Entry process guidance
• Temporary Resident Card applications
• Immigration status regularization
• Compliance with post-arrival requirements

We accompany our clients until the Temporary Resident Card has been successfully issued.

Family-Based Temporary Residence

International mobility often involves accompanying family members.
Our attorneys manage every aspect of the immigration process required for spouses, children, and eligible dependents seeking Family-Based Temporary Residence in Mexico.

Our services include:
• Family reunification applications
• Temporary Residence by Family Unity
• Immigration documentation
• Legal representation before the National Immigration Institute

We help expatriate families relocate smoothly while ensuring compliance with Mexican immigration regulations.

Maintaining immigration compliance is essential for companies employing foreign personnel.

We advise employers regarding:

• Immigration record maintenance
• Corporate compliance strategies
• Preventive legal audits

Our proactive legal approach helps businesses avoid delays, sanctions, and administrative complications.
