Introduction

ORBIS is pleased to announce that following meetings with the Economy Secretariat in Mexico, the new regulation NOM-019-SE-2021 will come into effect no later than December 31, 2022, allowing for a transitional period of 180 days.

Changes to Testing Protocol

The updated NOM-019-SE-2021 testing protocol will apply to all products classified as data processing equipment, including desktop computers, laptops, servers, routers, and other consumer products with data processing capabilities. The process lead time for testing will increase from four weeks to eight weeks.

Highly Specialized Equipment falling under the NOM-019 scope will also face stricter requirements to comply with the new regulations. Notably, many certificates issued in 2022 will lose their validity by June 28, 2023, unless a transitional process is undertaken. This change particularly affects HSE Dictums.
