Mexico’s Secretariat of the Navy (SEMAR) published an official notice on 28 Aug 2026 announcing authorized tariffs for use of port infrastructure at Tuxpan, Veracruz. The notice says the notice itself is effective on publication and the tariffs will take effect 20 business days after publication; the schedule is available via a provided PDF link.
What changed
SEMAR’s Dirección General de Puertos issued an aviso announcing that "fueron autorizadas las tarifas para el cobro por el uso de infraestructura portuaria, aplicables en el puerto de Tuxpan, Ver."
The document states "El presente aviso entrará en vigor el día de su publicación en el Diario Oficial de la Federación" (publication date 28 Aug 2026) and separately that the "tarifas... entrarán en vigor a partir de los veinte días hábiles siguientes a su publicación".
The notice points readers to the tariff schedule at www.dof.gob.mx/2026/SEMAR/3842_2026.pdf. The published DOF excerpt does not include the numeric tariff lines; operators must consult the linked PDF to see specific rates and scope.
