EDUARDO SOTELO CAUDURO IS A PARTNER IN OUR MEXICO CITY OFFICE AND A MEMBER OF THE INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND CUSTOMS PRACTICE.<\/strong><\/p>\n

His practice focuses on designing and implementing strategies to structure import and export operations in Mexico, ensuring both operational feasibility and compliance with applicable regulations. He provides ongoing advice regarding compliance with customs and international trade requirements, including the strategic planning of import and export operations, the utilization of benefits available under Free Trade Agreements through the assessment of applicable rules of origin, and the analysis, procurement, and implementation of export promotion programs, such as IMMEX, PROSEC, VAT Certifications, and Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) programs.

In mergers and acquisitions transactions, Eduardo advises on international trade and customs due diligence matters, identifying contingencies, mitigating regulatory risks, and supporting the structuring of transactions in compliance with applicable regulations. He also advises multinational companies on export controls, dual-use goods, and economic sanctions regimes, and closely monitors regulatory developments related to forced labor and other supply chain due diligence initiatives.<\/p>\n

Eduardo earned his law degree from Universidad Iberoamericana. He is an active member of the International Law Section of the American Bar Association (ABA), where he serves as Vice Chair of the Rule of Law Committee of the Mexico Committee, and is also a member of the New York State Bar Association, where he actively participates in its International Trade Committee.<\/p>\n
