Yes. Decree 29-89 (the Maquila Law) establishes a temporary admission regime for exporters operating outside free zones and ZDEEPs, administered by the Ministry of the Economy (MINECO) and the tax authority (SAT). This dossier mentions it only as a territorial complement; the regime's detail and benefits are covered in the tax incentives dossier. FUNDESA publishes the decree and its amendments.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

Caveat

the regime's detail sits in the tax incentives dossier, not this one

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
