Background Checks
​in Mexico

​Basic resource relating to background checks in Mexico.
We are not a law firm. Do not consider our information as legal advice. This information has been summarized based on our legal inquiries. Information can become obsolete from one day to another due to changes in laws, regulations, or government procedures. Consult labor and tax attorneys for legal advice. (Note from HR Mexico staff)

Background checks in Mexico...

The background check system is different than the United States of America (as an example.)

1.) There is no national background check system in Mexico
2.) The typical background check is a letter from the local / state government declaring no criminal history at the local / state level
3.) The candidate must request the criminal record letter
4.) The candidate must travel to Mexico City for a federal criminal record letter
5.) Mexico City is the only place to obtain the federal criminal history letter
6.) Depending on the state, the criminal record letter requested by the candidate takes between 1 and 5 business days

A private investigator is required for a comprehensive background check (This can cost up to $10,000 USD depending on how thorough you want to investigate the candidate.)
