The year has begun with the implementation of vehicular verification in Mexico, aimed at reducing pollution emissions. It is essential for vehicle owners to undergo this process as soon as possible. The procedure involves several steps, including accessing the official website, providing vehicle information, selecting a verification center, and making a payment. In Jalisco, the verification process is mandatory for all residents with local plates, and failure to comply may result in fines or surcharges.
In Jalisco, the verification calendar is divided into two-month periods, with vehicles required to undergo verification based on their plate numbers. For example, vehicles with plate numbers ending in 1 and 2 must undergo verification in February. The cost of verification is 500 pesos if paid on time, and 550 pesos if paid late. Vehicle owners can access the official website at https://verificacionesable.jalisco.gob.mx/ to reserve an appointment and make the necessary payment.
To undergo verification, vehicle owners must ensure their vehicle meets all the required standards and regulations. This includes complying with environmental and technical standards set by the Secretary of the Environment. Some vehicles, such as electric and hybrid cars, current and next-year models, motorcycles, and classic cars, are exempt from verification. However, all other vehicles with state plates must undergo verification within the specified timeframe.
In Mexico City, the verification calendar is based on the vehicle’s gum color and plate termination. The cost of verification is 738 pesos, which must be paid directly at the verification center. Vehicle owners can access the official website at https://citasveriferros.cdmx.gob.mx to reserve an appointment and select a verification center. It is essential to ensure the vehicle is up to date on its technical and mechanical aspects before undergoing verification.
The deadline for undergoing verification varies between Jalisco and Mexico City. In Mexico City, verification will be carried out until June 2025, according to the corresponding calendar. In Jalisco, the first period for verification is until June 2025, with discounts and benefits available. If vehicle owners fail to undergo verification during this period, they can still do so until December 2025, but with higher costs and no benefits. Failure to undergo verification can result in economic sanctions, significant fines, and vehicular restrictions, making it essential for drivers to meet this requirement in a timely manner.
