Finding Mexican federal law

The Diario Oficial de la Federación (DOF) is Mexico's official gazette. Federal laws, decrees, regulations, official standards (NOMs), the yearly tax rules and the minimum wage resolution only take effect once published there. The Chamber of Deputies keeps consolidated texts of federal laws in force, with the date of the last reform.

What it publishes

• Federal laws, reforms and decrees, with editions each working day.
• The annual Miscellaneous Tax Resolution and its annexes, including income tax tables.
• The CONASAMI minimum wage resolution.
• Official Mexican Standards (NOMs) and public notices.

How to use it to check a claim

1. Check the DOF publication date and the date a measure takes effect, which can differ.
2. For a law's current wording, use the consolidated text and check its 'última reforma' date.
