The U.S. government announced the immediate suspension of visas for foreign commercial truck drivers, a decision that, according to the National Chamber of Freight Transport (Canacar), severely affects both Mexico and the United States. The measure not only disrupts supply chains but also restricts cross-border transport capacity, significantly reducing exports that rely on Mexican operators who hold visas to perform their work within U.S. territory.
Canacar emphasized that this situation poses a risk to the fluidity of bilateral trade, as a large portion of goods entering the United States depend directly on transportation services provided by Mexican companies. The suspension creates uncertainty for the sector and could lead to higher logistics costs and delivery delays of products essential for industry and consumer markets.
