Mexico anti-corruption integrity reforms

Entities: Instituto de Verificación Administrativa (INVEA) · Mexico City Government · Mexico City · Secretaría de Seguridad Ciudadana · Specialized Verification Personnel

Overview

In early July 2026 the Instituto Nacional Electoral (INE) introduced a new ethics code and appointed officials to lead the electoral bodies in the states of Michoacán and Jalisco, marking a rollout of stricter conduct standards at the national and sub‑national level.

By late July, Mexico City’s Instituto de Verificación Administrativa (INVEA) began the second phase of its integrity evaluations for verification personnel. After the first phase in October‑November dismissed 53 staff for failing probity tests, the city expanded the program to include comprehensive social, psychological, medical and polygraph assessments, aiming to bolster institutional credibility and prevent corruption across municipal verification activities.
