On December 16, 2020, the Mexican National Commission on Minimum Wages (
Comisión Nacional de los Salarios Mínimos or CONASAMI) approved, by majority vote, a general increase to the daily minimum wage, including an increase to the minimum daily wage in the Free Zone of the North Border (
Zona Libre de la Frontera Norte or ZLFN) an area that comprises cities along or near the U.S. border. Also, on December 23, 2020, CONASAMI published the corresponding decree in the Official Gazette of the Federation.
Prior to determining the annual increase, the CONASAMI applied the independent recovery amount of MXN$10.46 to the 2020 minimum daily wage.
