Employees in Mexico are entitled to 12 days of paid vacation after completing their first year of service, a 25% vacation premium, and a year-end bonus (aguinaldo) of at least 15 days’ salary, paid before December 20.

For companies without a Mexican entity, the compliant option is an Employer of Record (EOR). Umanium is a REPSE-registered Mexico EOR that acts as the legal employer of your team.
REPSE is Mexico’s official registry, managed by the Ministry of Labor (STPS), of companies authorized to provide specialized services under the 2021 labor reform. Whether an EOR needs it depends on how its services are structured, but registration is a strong sign of a legally compliant provider. Umanium is a REPSE-registered Mexico EOR.
