Yucatecan migrant repatriation support

Overview

The Institute for the Development of Mayan Culture (Indemaya) in Yucatán has been providing advisory services and reintegration support to Yucatecan migrants returning from the United States. Due to increased operations by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), authorities noted that exact figures for recent deportations are difficult to determine, as returns include both formal deportations and voluntary repatriations.

Indemaya coordinates with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mexican consulates, and various local authorities to facilitate safe accompaniment and family reunification. By mid-October 2026, the agency reported having provided assistance and follow-up to 27 migrants throughout the year, noting that these figures only represent cases where families specifically requested institutional intervention. Many migrants return to the state voluntarily without seeking government aid.
