I can't find any reference to this change in any of the MX publications that I read. Hopefully, this is true. However, without any type of testing, we will probably see many older vehicles on the roads that shouldn't be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostlylost Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 This is regarding a federal program, It does not modify state programs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went for my (second) annual Verificación Responsable yesterday, in Ocotlán, and asked if we whose vehicles are registered and garaged here at Lakeside are included in the mandatory testing, as contradictory information is circulating. They confirmed that our area is included, and their understanding is that fines will begin sometime in 2023 as the area is close to reaching the 80 inspection lanes that is the cutoff. They also confirmed that foreign-plated vehicles (USA and Canada) who are garaged in Jalisco to area residents must comply with the emissions testing. To complete the online appointment for foreign cars, they said to make up a current -year date for the tarjeta de circulación receipt and tarjeta number and they will adjust these when you present your documents for review at the inspection station. Or, one can phone the call center number and they will make the appointment for you and email the document to take to Recaudadora or the bank for payment. According to Governor Alfaro, documentation of inspection also provides a 10% discount in our upcoming annual vehicle registration. We were in and out in 20 minutes yesterday morning, including time for the above questions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could have taken pictures of some of the jalopies I've seen over the years. In Mexico you as a driver have to be prepared for anything on the roads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your vehicle is not registered in greater GDL, Puerto Vallarta, Tepatitlan de Morelos or Ocotlan and you do not work daily in one of them... the Jalisco verification program does not apply to you. If a foreign plated vehicle same rules apply. Residence, or work in those areas listed From the Jalisco website Edited November 16, 2022 by Mostlylost Added foreign plated info 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the many people who have tried to explain these very simple facts are just beating their heads against several brick walls. 🙄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
