ANERPV Launches New Cargo Crime Intelligence Standard
Mexico has introduced a new competency standard aimed at strengthening intelligence capabilities against cargo crime by extending risk prevention beyond highways and border crossings to the entire logistics chain. The new EC1800 Competency Standard, published in the Official Gazette of the Federation (DOF) through CONOCER, broadens the use of geospatial intelligence to help identify and mitigate risks affecting warehouses, distribution centers and domestic logistics operations as cargo theft continues to challenge supply chains across the country.
ANAM, CBP Expand Real-Time Customs Data Exchange
Mexico and the United States are advancing customs cooperation by developing a real-time information exchange system between the National Customs Agency of Mexico (ANAM) and US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The initiative aims to improve the validation of import and export declarations while strengthening efforts to combat fuel smuggling, contraband, arms trafficking, and drug trafficking across the shared border.
CAPUFE Modernizes Toll Network for Digital Payments
