Tariff elimination is complete: Guatemalan goods enter Mexico at 0% duty on 97% of lines, and Mexican goods enter Guatemala at 0% on 96%. Quotas: cheese 580 t (bilateral), tuna products 500 t (bilateral) and yellow corn 150,000 t (a unilateral Guatemalan quota). For sugar there is a 22% shortage quota that operates when Mexico declares a scarcity. Figures from the DACE profile of May 2024, verified in audit.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
