One of the most important procedures that motorists must carry out is that of vehicle verification, which must be carried out twice a year. In both Mexico City (CDMX) and the State of Mexico (Edomex), this procedure is not only part of the Revenue Law, but it is also a mechanism that was implemented to reduce and regulate pollution resulting from the circulation of cars, passenger transport, cargo transport and motorcycles.

Each car must follow a verification schedule according to its characteristics in order to keep the emission control tests in order. However, in the event that the car owner has not carried out this procedure in a timely manner, he may do so extemporaneously in both states.

The cost to carry out the mandatory verification once it has been concluded in CDMX is 1,924.40 pesos, while in Edomex the payment will be 1,792 pesos. In order to be able to pay the vehicle verification amount in the capital, you will need to perform the following procedure:
