The Ministry of Commerce’s Announcement No. 16 of 2026 publishes the final conclusion regarding the investigation into trade and investment barriers against Mexico-related restrictions affecting China. Pursuant to the relevant provisions of the Foreign Trade Law of the People’s Republic of China and the Rules on Trade Barrier Investigations, on September 25, 2025, the Ministry of Commerce issued Announcement No. 53 of 2025, deciding to conduct an investigation into trade and investment barriers related to Mexico’s restrictions affecting China. Now that this investigation has concluded, based on the investigation results and in accordance with Article 31 of the Rules on Trade Barrier Investigations, the Ministry of Commerce has determined that measures taken by the Government of Mexico against products from China and other non–free-trade partners—such as raising import tariff rates—fall within the circumstances provided for in Article 3 of the Rules on Trade Barrier Investigations, and therefore constitute trade and investment barriers.
