  1. Public Registry of Vehicles (REPUVE) Registry of vehicles imported under temporary regime A special presentation for the WMTA By: Jonathan Alvarez

  2. Relevant aspects of REPUVE • Is a Federal Registry that provides a mechanism of identification, vehicular control, and public/legal safety to all legal acts in connection with those vehicles circulating in Mexican territory (purchase, sale, theft, recovery, seizure, lease, demolition, insurance reimbursement, etc.) • REPUVE is managed and operated by the Federal Government through the Secretariat of Public Safety (“Secretaria de Seguridad Publica Nacional”). • REPUVE integrates a national database which is updated on a daily basis by Federal and State Authorities and the Obligated Parties bounded to provide registration and notices in accordance with Repuve’s Law and Rules. (the “Obligated Parties”) • REPUVE’s database may be verified by any person through its web site in order to verify the legal status of any vehicle (theft, insurance payment, seizure, recovery, etc.) GUTIERREZ, DIAZ, ESPARZA, S.C.

  3. ANTECEDENTS • REPUVE was created by the Federal Government through the issuance of the Public Registry of Vehicles Act published in the Mexican Official Gazette dated 09/01/2004. (“Repuve’s Law”) • REPUVE’s Rules were published until 12/05/2007, and became effective on 03/04/2008. (“Repuve’s Regulations”) • REPUVE’s Procedures Manual (Agreement 03/2008) was published on 03/03/2008 GUTIERREZ, DIAZ, ESPARZA, S.C.

  4. Information that REPUVE records regarding each vehicle • Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) • Essential characteristics of the vehicle • Name of the user (customer, importer, ) • Name and general data of manufacturer (if made in MX) • Any other information provided by the Federal and State Authorities • Any other information updated pursuant to the notices provided according to Repuve’s Law and Rules.

  5. Parties Obligated to file registration vehicles and/or provide notices before REPUVE. • Manufacturers of new vehicles that will be sold for Domestic Market. • Importers that will sold vehicles for Domestic Market (Dealers, etc.) • Importers of vehicles under temporary regime (“provisional registration”) • “Carroceros” (Vehicle Body Shop) (assembly and modification) • Insurance Companies, Bond Companies, Credit and Financial Institutions, Leasing Companies • Authorities (Federal and State)

  6. But, why Maquiladoras? • Because Maquiladorasmay import the following vehicles under temporary regime commonly used to transport Maquiladora’smerchandise: • Trailers; • Van trailers; • Flat bed chassis (to transport containers); • Other vehicles used in their processes and/or • transport

  7. “Importer is obligated to provide notice to REPUVE related to any vehicle imported under temporary regime” • The Theory: • Importer shall request registration of the vehicle no later than • one business day after import of vehicle. Such process is • made through Mexican Customs at the time import is • done. Customs shall provide such notice to REPUVE • (article 14 of Repuve’s Regulation). • The reality: • Mexican Customs not always provides the report or • accurate reports to REPUVE, causing lack of registries.

  8. Example of Repuve’s report • 1. Log in to: www.repuve.gob.mx and follow the link of “know legal status of your vehicle”; • 2. Enter your vehicle’s License Plates Number, Vehicle Identification Number or Repuve’s Code GUTIERREZ, DIAZ, ESPARZA, S.C.
