The environmental authorities in Mexico City and the State of Mexico have announced the release of the vehicle verification calendar for the year 2025. This calendar is an essential tool for vehicle owners to determine when their vehicles need to be ready for a successful verification.
The verification calendar is based on the color of the vehicle's sticker, which reflects its emissions category. However, it's important to note that the specific schedules for each sticker category (Yellow, Pink, Red, Green, Blue) are not included in the provided information.
Here's a breakdown of the sticker colors and the months when vehicles with specific colors will be verified:
- Vehicles with a yellow sticker will be verified in January and February.
- Vehicles with a pink sticker will be verified in February and March.
- Vehicles with a red sticker will be verified in March and April.
- Vehicles with a green sticker will be verified in April and May.
- Vehicles with a blue sticker will be verified in May and June.
It's essential to note that vehicles with holograms 00 and 0, electric and hybrid, school vehicles with authorization, those used for emergency services, urban services, firefighters, medical, rescue, public security, and civil protection are exempt from this measure.
The restriction on circulation for vehicles with hologram 2 will be in effect in the Mexico City Metropolitan Zone (ZMVM) on any Saturday of the month. This restriction will be in effect from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM in the City of Mexico and the conurbated zone of the State of Mexico.
For the most accurate and current 2025 verification schedule by sticker color, it is recommended to consult official local government websites, such as the Mexico City Government Environmental Agency (Secretaría del Medio Ambiente CDMX) and State of Mexico Environmental authorities (e.g., SEMARNAT or State of Mexico government site). These sources usually publish annual schedules with exact dates and requirements for each sticker category.
Please note that the "Hoy No Circula" program applies to all vehicles with hologram 1, odd-numbered license plates, hologram 2, and foreign vehicles on August 2nd.
Vehicles are assigned verification stickers based on emissions tests. Verification is mandatory, and failure to comply results in fines and restricted driving days. The schedule depends on the sticker color and the last digit(s) of the license plate. Colors typically correspond to different pollution levels or vehicle types.
