Committee question

Is there an AI law in Mexico that companies must comply with?

No. Mexico has no general AI law: the Senate draft has no committee report and first requires a constitutional amendment. What does apply: the 2025 data protection law, with an authority that already fines, and each sector’s third-party contracting rules.

The detail

85 bills have been filed since 2023, 67 still pending (Universidad Anáhuac, July 2026). The 2026 National AI Plan is a government plan, not a law, and imposes no obligations on private companies.

Reference case from the data protection authority: a MXN 42,849,095 fine against the Mexican Football Federation, announced by the Ministry of Anti-Corruption and Good Governance on July 12, 2026, for processing biometric data without express written consent.
