Tamaulipas educational fraud legislative reforms

Overview

The Tamaulipas Congress has unanimously approved reforms to the state Penal Code to increase penalties regarding unauthorized educational services and the issuance of fraudulent academic documents.

The legislative changes aim to protect students by classifying the offering or delivery of unauthenticated titles, diplomas, or degrees as fraud. Under the proposed amendments to Article 189 Ter, prison sentences for providing unauthorized educational services would double from four to eight years. Additionally, fines may increase from 1,000 to 2,000 UMAs, with penalties potentially applied to each irregular facility operated.
