Aerospace Meetings Querétaro: the Bajío aerospace cluster B2B floor where the airframe and engine OEMs close MRO contracts before the AFAC and SEDENA cocktail

Salón of the Centro de Convenciones de Querétaro on Autopista México-Querétaro Km 220+50, Parque Industrial Querétaro hosts the annual Aerospace Meetings Querétaro. Airframe and engine OEMs with local plants (Bombardier Recreational Products with BRP, Can-Am, Ski-Doo, Lynx, Sea-Doo, Evinrude; Safran Landing Systems with Querétaro and Chihuahua plants; Aernnova at Apaseo el Grande; ITP Aero at Querétaro; Collins Aerospace with Chihuahua and Querétaro plants; Pratt & Whitney with its Querétaro MRO centre; Airbus Helicopters with its operations plant; Bell Helicopter with its MRO plant; Honeywell's aerospace division) meet the MRO suppliers of the Bajío Aerospace Cluster (ClusQro) and the SEDENA and Fuerza Aérea Mexicana delegates. The day's rhythm is FAA-equivalent paperwork in the morning, MX-US defence appointments in the afternoon.

Logistics, access and custody of the Aerospace Salón

The Aerospace Salón accepts load-in from the Autopista México-Querétaro between 05:30 and 09:00 on set-up day, with a log signed by the Centro de Convenciones' operations team and the OEM's logistics lead. Material is moved into the booth's back-of-house in sealed boxes carrying the FAA-equivalent lot ID and held under key until registration opens. For OEMs bringing physical components (turbine blades, landing-gear assemblies, avionics modules) we run reinforced custody with a log signed by the quality engineer and the OEM's logistics lead.

For OEMs with Bajío plants we run split shipments to the plants with Carta Porte 3.0 plus USMCA compliance under the IMMEX regime. For OEMs with US operations (Connecticut, North Carolina, Texas, Arizona) we run the FAA and ITAR regulations for avionics components. For OEMs with European operations (France, UK, Germany) we run the EASA regulations for MRO and component fabrication.

For OEMs invoicing in MXP we issue CFDI 4.0 with 16% IVA break-down (or 0% under IMMEX), and the deduction support as Capacitación Técnica, Relaciones Institucionales or Mantenimiento Aéreo. For multinational OEMs we issue the MXP invoice plus a USD complementary invoice at the Banxico FIX rate. For OEMs with MXP/USD dual invoicing we run the pagos complement when the transaction settles in instalments. For Fuerza Aérea Mexicana and SEDENA deliveries we run national-security protocols and AFAC-backed invoicing.

AFAC, FAA-equivalent and Aerospace Salón restrictions

The Aerospace Salón operates under the rules of AFAC, the FAA-equivalent Mexican normativity and USMCA for the exhibition of aerospace components: no avionics components entering without the manufacturer's document traceability, no military equipment on display without SEDENA authorisation, no merch showing ITAR-controlled content without the corresponding authorisation, no distribution outside the booth without the compliance responsible, no photography or recording in defence B2B appointments.

For OEMs crossing the northern border we run USMCA compliance with a certificate of origin when the avionics component or engine comes from US or Canadian suppliers, plus the CFDI 4.0 foreign-trade complement under the IMMEX regime. For OEMs with European operations we run the EASA mark and the European aerospace regulations. For SEDENA deliveries we run the Public-Sector Acquisitions Law and national-security protocols.

For SAT invoicing we issue CFDI 4.0 with 16% IVA break-down (or 0% under IMMEX), aerospace-traceability serialisation when applicable, and the deduction support as Capacitación Técnica, Relaciones Institucionales or Mantenimiento Aéreo. For OEMs with cross-border operations we run the pagos complement when the transaction settles in instalments. For deliveries to Bajío free-zones we run the temporary-import pedimento when the component returns to origin. Back-of-house delivery is documented on a vale signed by the OEM's operations lead and the regulatory-compliance responsible.
