Amazon Mexico, operated

You already built the hard part. Mexico is just sitting there.

You did the work in the US — catalogue, reviews, rank, supply chain. Then you opened Mexico and watched it do nothing. That is not a demand problem. It is a plumbing problem, and plumbing is fixable.

WHAT WE ARE

A Mexico City agency that unblocks compliance and gating on Amazon Mexico, lands local FBA, and then operates the channel — monitoring by system, decisions by a person.

  • Official Amazon APIs only
  • We sell on Amazon Mexico ourselves
  • No incentivised reviews, ever

A completed permit does not make a listing sell.

We see accounts with sanitary registration fully approved and their listings still dark — because Amazon rejects the category at system level, and that is released by working the case, not by filing more paperwork.

The permit is necessary. It has never been sufficient.

START HERE

Which one are you?

Path A

I have never sold in Mexico.

A strong US account, no Mexican revenue, no RFC. You want to know whether landing here is worth it at all.

Eligibility and paperwork

Which of your categories are gated in Mexico, and what NOM or COFEPRIS documentation each one actually requires.

Whether it is worth landing at all

Which categories can realistically sell here, what the first SKU set should be, and what the honest revenue case looks like — before you spend anything on entry.

A first SKU set

Which products to land locally first, in what quantity, against a three-month restock cycle from China.

Entity and permits are handled by a partner firm — we do not resell or mark up their work.

Path B

I am in Mexico and I am stuck.

Listings live but flat, categories gated, cases open for months. Inventory that cannot move.

The blocker file

Every gated category, suppressed listing and stuck case, with the specific documentation each one actually needs.

The gap map

Every listing scored on localisation quality, buy box position, gating status and inventory risk — ranked by revenue at stake.

A documented baseline

The number every later claim gets measured against, calculated in front of you and yours to defend.

What is actually blocking you

Three things break Mexico for foreign sellers. In our experience they break in this order.

Your money leaks before it arrives.

Without a Mexican RFC, Amazon withholds 36% Source: Ley de Ingresos de la Federación 2026, Art. 25 (DOF), published 2025-11-07. Foreign sellers without a Mexican RFC are subject to 20% ISR withholding plus 100% of the 16% IVA, totalling 36% of gross. With a registered RFC, a foreign legal entity is withheld 4% ISR plus 50% of IVA, totalling roughly 12%. of your gross sales.

Your catalogue never landed.

A US listing run through machine translation is not a Mexican listing. Titles that do not match how people search here. Bullets written for a US buyer. Missing local attributes. The listing exists; it does not compete.

Your categories are locked.

Gated categories, brand approvals, NOM and COFEPRIS documentation. US paperwork gets rejected because it is US paperwork. Cases go into Seller Support and come back with a template. Meanwhile inventory cannot move.

What we do about it

Four services. You can buy the first one alone. We run the whole path and close whatever is left open along it — including what is still stuck after the paperwork is in order.

  1. Mexico Launch Audit

    We read the whole account and hand you a prioritised map: what is gated and why, what the catalogue is missing, where the inventory should be, how your pricing sits against local competition. You also get a documented sales baseline — the number every later claim gets measured against.

    One-time. This is the entry point, and it stands on its own.

  2. Unblock & Resolve

    Appeals, gated categories, brand approvals, NOM and COFEPRIS documentation flows, cases that have been open for months. Our system assembles the evidence file. A human reviews it and submits it. Always a human — Amazon offers no API for case submission, and we do not automate interfaces we are not permitted to automate.

    This is our home turf.

  3. Full-Channel Operation

    Daily monitoring: fee changes, listing suppressions, stock risk, buy box, competitor pricing. Inventory forecasting built around three-month restock cycles from China, not US assumptions. Ads managed against actual margin. Listings written for Mexican buyers. Reviews through Amazon’s official programmes only — Vine Mexico and Request-a-Review.

    The system watches and drafts. A person approves anything that moves money or cannot be undone. Fifteen to thirty minutes of your day.

  4. Proof

    Everything measured against the baseline documented in the audit. Monthly, in writing, with the arithmetic shown.

    Not a service you buy. A condition of the other three.

We do not charge for the business you already built.

At the audit we document your current Mexican revenue and freeze that number. The variable part of our fee applies only above that line — permanently. If nothing improves, we earn nothing on the variable side. By design.

Full structure on the first call, in writing, before you commit to anything. Rates are being finalised — the model is not.

Why now

The window is open right now.

If you are a China-based brand, Amazon is subsidising your tax registration directly.

China-specific — it does not extend to general eligibility.

None of that is ours. It is Amazon buying sellers into a marketplace it wants to grow, and acquisition pushes end when the target is met. What we do is make sure you are in a position to use it before it closes.

How we work

Official channels. Only.

Solution Provider Portal, Authorized Partner, SP-API and the Ads API. That is the complete list — and humans do what has no API.

Never your credentials.

Not a password, not a login. Authorized Partner exists so agencies do not need them — any agency that asks is putting your account at risk.

We sell here ourselves.

Our own brand on Amazon Mexico — same fees, same Buy Box. We are not describing this market from the outside.

Who this is not for

Straight, because it saves us both time.

Under roughly $1M a year on Amazon US — the fixed cost will not pay for itself yet.

Looking for review manipulation, ranking tricks, or anything grey. The answer is no, and it stays no.

Wanting someone to take the account off your hands entirely. We operate; you approve. That approval is not ceremonial.

Needing a Mexican tax entity built. That is our partner firm's work, and we neither resell it nor mark it up.

The paperwork is the moat.

Everything above is solvable. None of it is glamorous. Most sellers do not do it because it is documentation work in a second language against a regulator and a marketplace that both answer slowly.

That is the whole opportunity. The sellers who land locally in 2026 set the prices everyone else reacts to in 2027.

SEE WHERE YOUR ACCOUNT STANDS

Tell us what you sell and where it is stuck.

Two minutes, no email required to see your result. We read your account through Amazon’s official Authorized Partner access — you grant it, you can see exactly what was granted, and you can revoke it in one click without contacting us.

We never ask you to send credentials. Not a password, not a login, not a one-time code. Anything that asks you for those, from us or from anyone else, is putting every account it touches at risk — including yours.

Or email us at hello@flamingeros.com — a person answers.
