The Mexican Council of Foreign Trade (COMCE) in Laredo has called for a review of a proposal that would increase crossing fees at border bridges. The initiative, still under analysis, aims to adjust costs for using border infrastructure, raising concerns among foreign trade stakeholders. If approved, the proposal could raise operational costs for importers, exporters, and customs brokers moving goods through Mexico’s northern border.

Border bridges are critical points for Mexico-U.S. bilateral trade. Any increase in fees directly impacts logistics costs, especially in regions like Laredo, which handles a high volume of commercial traffic. COMCE Laredo represents companies and professionals in foreign trade, and its request for review aims to prevent the increase from affecting the region’s competitiveness.
