In July, remittances reached Mexico for 5,330 million, a 4.7% drop compared to the same month in 2024. From January to July 2025, remittances totaled $34.889 billion, a lower amount than what was received in 2024, and even lower than in 2023.

Since recovering in 2014, the flow of remittances to Mexico has experienced a streak of 11 consecutive years of growth, which will most likely end in 2025. Between 2013 and 2024, remittances increased in nominal terms from $23 billion to $64.7 billion; that is, they almost tripled.

Remittances to Mexico start the year with growth. In January, 4,660 million dollars arrived in family remittances, +1.9% compared to the previous year.

Mexico received 64,745 million dollars (md) in remittances in 2024, +2.3% compared to 2023 when 63,319 md were received. Remittances reach a new historical maximum in 2024 and accumulate a streak of 11 consecutive years of growth, which began in 2014.
