You should read this prospectus supplement along with the accompanying prospectus. Both documents contain information you should consider when making your investment decision. Mexico is responsible for the information contained and incorporated by reference in this prospectus and in any related free-writing prospectus or prospectus supplement that Mexico prepares or authorizes. Mexico has not authorized anyone else to provide you with any other information and takes no responsibility for any other information that others may give you. Mexico and the underwriters are offering to sell the notes and seeking offers to buy the notes only in jurisdictions where it is lawful to do so. The information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus is current only as of the dates of this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, respectively.

Mexico is furnishing this prospectus supplement and the prospectus solely for use by prospective investors in connection with their consideration of a purchase of the notes. Mexico confirms that:

• the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus is true and correct in all material respects and is not misleading;

• it has not omitted other facts the omission of which makes this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus as a whole misleading; and

• it accepts responsibility for the information it has provided in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.

This prospectus supplement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any notes in any jurisdiction to any person to whom it is unlawful to make the offer or solicitation in such jurisdiction. The distribution of this prospectus supplement and the offer or sale of notes may be restricted by law in certain jurisdictions. Mexico and the underwriters do not represent that this prospectus supplement may be lawfully distributed, or that any notes may be lawfully offered, in compliance with any applicable registration or other requirements in any such jurisdiction, or pursuant to an exemption available thereunder, or assume any responsibility for facilitating any such distribution or offering.

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS – The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (the “Insurance Distribution Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

MIFID II PRODUCT GOVERNANCE / PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS AND ECPS ONLY TARGET MARKET – Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer’s product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the notes (a “distributor”) should take into consideration the manufacturers’ target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers’ target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO UK RETAIL INVESTORS – The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom (“UK”). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (“EUWA”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the UK Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”) and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

The prospectus supplement is only being distributed to and is only directed at (i) persons who are outside the United Kingdom or (ii) investment professionals falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, as amended (the “Order”) or (iii) high net worth companies, and other persons to whom it may lawfully be communicated, falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”). The notes are only available to, and any invitation, offer or agreement to subscribe, purchase or otherwise acquire such notes will be engaged in only with, relevant persons. Any person who is not a relevant person should not act or rely on this document or any of its contents.

S-3

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus supplement may contain forward-looking statements. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about Mexico’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current plans, estimates and projections, and therefore you should not place undue reliance on them. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and Mexico undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Mexico cautions you that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to:

• Adverse external factors, such as high international interest rates, low oil prices and recession or low growth in Mexico’s trading partners. High international interest rates could increase Mexico’s expenditures, low oil prices could decrease the Mexican Government’s revenues and recession or low growth in Mexico’s main trading partners could lead to fewer exports. A combination of these factors could negatively affect Mexico’s current account.

• Instability or volatility in the international financial markets. This could lead to domestic volatility, making it more complicated for the Mexican Government to achieve its macroeconomic goals. This could also lead to declines in foreign investment inflows, portfolio investment in particular.

• Adverse domestic factors, such as domestic inflation, high domestic interest rates, exchange rate volatility and political uncertainty. Each of these could lead to lower growth in Mexico, declines in foreign direct and portfolio investment and potentially lower international reserves.

• Global or national health considerations, including the outbreak of pandemic or contagious disease, such as the ongoing coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic.

S-8

RISK FACTORS

The following risk factor supplements the information contained under “Risk Factors” in the accompanying prospectus. You should consult your financial and legal advisors about the risks of investing in the debt securities and the suitability of your investment in light of your particular situation. Mexico disclaims any responsibility for advising you on these matters.

There can be no assurances that Mexico’s credit ratings will improve or remain stable, or that they will not be downgraded, suspended or cancelled by the rating agencies.

Mexico’s long-term public external indebtedness was downgraded in the spring of 2020 by each of the three major credit rating agencies. On March 26, 2020, S&P cut Mexico’s rating from BBB+ to BBB, and on April 15, 2020, Fitch cut Mexico’s debt rating from BBB to BBB-, both downgrades due to expected economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and lower oil prices. On November 11, 2020, Fitch affirmed its BBB- rating with a stable outlook, and on December 2, 2020, S&P affirmed its BBB rating with a negative outlook. On April 17, 2020, Moody’s downgraded Mexico’s debt rating from A3 to Baa1 and maintained its negative outlook, citing a material decline in Mexico’s medium-term economic growth prospects and continued weakening of the financial and operational condition of Petróleos Mexicanos (PEMEX).

Ratings address the creditworthiness of Mexico and the likelihood of timely payment of Mexico’s long-term debt securities. Ratings are not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell securities and may be changed, suspended or withdrawn at any time. Mexico’s current ratings and the rating outlooks currently assigned to it depend, in part, on economic conditions and other factors that affect credit risk and are outside the control of Mexico, as well as assessments of the creditworthiness of its productive state-owned enterprises. Certain ratings agencies may also downgrade PEMEX’s credit ratings, as they have in the past, and their assessment of PEMEX’s creditworthiness may affect Mexico’s credit ratings.

There can be no assurances that Mexico’s credit ratings will be maintained or that they will not be downgraded, suspended or cancelled. Any credit rating downgrade, suspension or cancellation may have an adverse effect on the market price and the trading of the notes.

Changes in the interest rate environment could adversely impact the trading price of the notes.

We expect that the trading price of the notes will depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the interest rate environment.

If interest rates, or expected future interest rates, rise during the terms of the notes, the price of the notes will likely decrease. The condition of the financial markets and prevailing interest rates have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate in the future, which could have an adverse effect on the trading price of the notes. Because interest rates and interest rate expectations are influenced by a wide variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that changes in interest rates or interest rate expectations will not adversely affect the trading price of the notes.

The COVID-19 outbreak is adversely affecting Mexico’s economy, and the impact could be material.

The global outbreak of COVID-19, and public health measures to mitigate it, are having a material adverse impact on the economy in Mexico and around the world. The scope, magnitude and duration of the impact on Mexico cannot yet be determined.

Cases of COVID-19 have been reported in Mexico since February 2020, and the Mexican government has taken extensive steps designed to mitigate the spread of the disease and its impact on public health. See Mexico’s annual report on Form 18-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed on September 10, 2020. The efficacy of these steps cannot yet be evaluated, and it is highly uncertain how long and in what form they will remain in effect. The actual death count is likely to exceed official estimates.

S-9

These public-health measures, and the consequences of similar measures in other countries, have had material adverse effects on economic activity in Mexico. In addition, the COVID-19 crisis has contributed to sharply lower and more volatile world prices for oil and gas, which affect the Mexican economy and the financial condition of PEMEX. The Mexican government and Banco de México have announced steps designed to address these adverse economic impacts, and they may take additional steps in the future. See Mexico’s annual report on Form 18-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed on September 10, 2020.

The impact of these matters on key measures of economic performance remains highly uncertain. Recently, interest rates and inflation have been volatile and uncertain, and the value of the Mexican peso has declined. See Mexico’s annual report on Form 18-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed on September 10, 2020. There have been adverse impacts on economic activity (including a decrease in GDP), employment, foreign investment and international trade, among other areas. These adverse impacts are likely to continue, and they could adversely affect the balance of payments, international reserves and public finance. While the duration of these effects remains highly uncertain, their nature and magnitude are likely to be material and adverse.

An active trading market may not develop for the notes, which could adversely affect the price of the notes in the secondary market and your ability to resell the notes should you desire to do so.

Mexico intends to apply to list the notes on the TPEx; however, we cannot make any assurance as to:

• the development of an active trading market or that the TPEx listing will be maintained;

• the liquidity of any trading market that may develop;

• the ability of holders to sell their notes; or

• the price at which the holders would be able to sell their notes.

No assurances can be given as to whether the notes will be, or will remain, listed on the TPEx. If the notes fail to or cease to be listed on the TPEx, certain investors may not invest in, or continue to hold or invest in, the notes. In addition, any trading market that may develop for the notes may be adversely affected by changes in the overall market for investment-grade securities, changes in our financial performance or prospects, a change in our credit rating, the interest of securities dealers in making a market for the notes and prevailing interest rates, financial markets and general economic conditions. A market for the notes, if any, may be subject to volatility. Prospective investors in the notes should be aware that they may be required to bear the financial risks of such an investment for an indefinite period of time.

S-10

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds to Mexico from the sale of the notes will be approximately U.S. $2,993,100,000, after the deduction of the underwriting commission and Mexico’s share of the expenses in connection with the sale of the notes, which are estimated to be approximately U.S. $300,000. Mexico intends to use the net proceeds of the sale of the notes for the general purposes of the Government of Mexico, including the refinancing, repurchase or retirement of its domestic and external indebtedness. None of the underwriters shall have any responsibility for the application of the net proceeds of the notes.

S-11

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

Mexico will issue the notes under an amended and restated indenture, dated as of June 1, 2015, between Mexico and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee. The information contained in this section summarizes some of the terms of the notes and the indenture. This summary does not contain all of the information that may be important to you as a potential investor in the notes. You should read the prospectus, the indenture and the form of the notes before making your investment decision. Mexico has filed or will file copies of these documents with the SEC and will also file copies of these documents at the offices of the trustee.

For more information, see “Description of the Securities – Debt Securities” in the accompanying prospectus.

S-12

Additional Amounts

In addition to the limitations and exceptions described in “Description of the Securities—Additional Amounts” in the accompanying prospectus, no additional amounts shall be payable:

• in respect of any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended as of the issue date (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable) (the “Code”) and any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code, any intergovernmental agreement between a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the United States with respect to the foregoing or any law, regulation, rule or practice adopted pursuant to any such intergovernmental agreement or pursuant to any treaty or convention implementing such Sections of the Code.

Further Issues

The sole paragraph under the heading “Description of the Securities—Further Issues” in the accompanying prospectus is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

Mexico may from time to time, without the consent of holders of the notes, create and issue notes having the same terms and conditions as the notes offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement in all respects, except for the issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the first payment of interest thereon. If issued pursuant to a “qualified reopening” of the original series, otherwise treated as part of the same “issue” of debt instruments as the original series or issued with no more than a de minimis amount of original issue discount, in each case for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and to the extent permitted by applicable authorities in the ROC and subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory and listing approvals from such authorities, including but not limited to the TPEx and the Taiwan Securities Association, such additional notes may have the same ISIN numbers and common codes as the notes offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and may be consolidated with, and form a single series with, any other outstanding notes of the series.

ROC Trading

Investors with a securities book-entry account with an ROC securities broker and a foreign currency deposit account with an ROC bank may request the approval of the Taiwan Depositary & Clearing Corporation (the “TDCC”) for the settlement of the notes through the account of TDCC with Euroclear or Clearstream, and if such approval is granted by TDCC, the notes may be so cleared and settled. In such circumstances, TDCC will allocate the respective book-entry interest of such investor in the notes position to the securities book-entry account designated by such investor in the ROC. The notes will be traded and settled pursuant to the applicable rules and operating procedures of TDCC and the TPEx as domestic bonds.

In addition, an investor may apply to TDCC (by filing in a prescribed form) to transfer the notes in its own account with Euroclear or Clearstream to the TDCC account with Euroclear or Clearstream for trading in the domestic market or vice versa for trading in overseas markets.

For such investors who hold their interest in the notes through an account opened and held by TDCC with Euroclear or Clearstream, distributions of principal and/or interest for the notes to such holders may be made by payment services banks whose systems are connected to TDCC to the foreign currency deposit accounts of the holders. Such payment is expected to be made on the second Taiwanese business day following TDCC’s receipt of such payment (due to time difference, the payment is expected to be received by TDCC one Taiwanese business day after the distribution date). However, when the holders will actually receive such distributions may vary depending upon the daily operations of the ROC banks with which the holder has the foreign currency deposit account.

S-13

ROC TAXATION

ROC Taxation

The following summary of certain taxation provisions under ROC law is based on current law and practice and assumes that the notes will be issued, offered, sold and re-sold, directly or indirectly, to professional institutional investors as defined under Paragraph 2, Article 4 of the Financial Consumer Protection Act of the ROC only. It does not purport to be comprehensive and does not constitute legal or tax advice. Investors (particularly those subject to special tax rules, such as banks, dealers, insurance companies and tax-exempt entities) should consult with their own tax advisers regarding the tax consequences of an investment in the notes.

Interest on the Notes

As Mexico, the issuer of the notes, is not an ROC statutory tax withholder, there is no ROC withholding tax on the interest or deemed interest to be paid on the notes.

A ROC corporate holder must include the interest or deemed interest receivable under the notes as part of its taxable income and pay income tax at a flat rate of 20% (unless the total taxable income for a fiscal year is under NT$120,000), as it is subject to income tax on its worldwide income on an accrual basis. The alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) is not applicable.

A non-ROC corporate holder is subject to ROC income tax on ROC-sourced income only and the interest or deemed interest receivable under the notes is not ROC-sourced income. Hence a non-ROC corporate holder has no ROC income tax liability with respect to the interest or deemed interest receivable under the notes. AMT does not apply either.

Sale of the Notes

In general, the sale of corporate bonds, financial bonds or other securities for public offering approved by the government of the ROC is subject to a 0.1% securities transaction tax (“STT”) on the transaction price. However, Article 2-1 of the Securities Transaction Tax Act of the ROC prescribes that STT will cease to be levied on the sale of corporate bonds and financial bonds from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2026. Such Article 2-1 applies, mutatis mutandis, to the sale of foreign currency denominated bonds issued by foreign governments and approved by the government of the ROC for public offering. Therefore, the sale of the notes will be exempt from STT if the sale is conducted on or before December 31, 2026. Starting from January 1, 2027, any sale of the notes will be subject to STT at 0.1% of the transaction price, unless otherwise provided by the tax laws in force at that time.

Capital gains generated from the sale of bonds are exempt from ROC income tax. Accordingly, a ROC corporate holder is not subject to income tax on any capital gains generated from the sale of the notes. However, a ROC corporate holder should include the capital gains from the sale of the notes in calculating its basic income for the purpose of calculating their AMT. If the amount of the AMT exceeds the ordinary income tax calculated pursuant to the Income Basic Tax Act of the ROC (also known as the AMT Act), the excess becomes the ROC corporate holder’s AMT payable. Capital losses, if any, incurred by such holder could be carried over five years to offset against capital gains of the same category of income for the purposes of calculating its AMT.

A non-ROC corporate holder with a fixed place of business (e.g., a branch) or a business agent in the ROC is not subject to income tax on any capital gains generated from the sale of the notes. However, its fixed place of business or business agent should include any such capital gains in calculating its basic income for the purpose of calculating AMT. A non-ROC corporate holder without a fixed place of business or a business agent in the ROC is not subject to income tax or AMT on any capital gains generated from the sale of the notes.

S-14

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

For a summary of the U.S. federal income tax considerations at the date hereof with respect to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the notes, please review the section entitled “Taxation—United Stated Federal Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus, except that the following provisions amend and supplement such section as follows:

The following sentence is added to the end of the first paragraph under the heading “Taxation—United Stated Federal Taxation” of the accompanying prospectus:

This summary does not address consequences arising under special timing rules prescribed under section 451(b) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.

The fourth paragraph under the heading “Taxation—United Stated Federal Taxation” of the accompanying prospectus is hereby deleted in its entirety, as indicated by a strikethrough (deletion) as follows:

U.S. holders that use an accrual method of accounting for tax purposes (“accrual-basis holders”), generally are required to include certain amounts in income no later than the time such amounts are reflected on certain financial statements (the “book/tax conformity rule”). The application of the book/tax conformity rule thus may require the accrual of income earlier than would be the case under the general tax rules described below. It is not entirely clear to what types of income the book/tax conformity rule applies, or, in some cases, how the rule is to be applied if it is applicable. However, proposed regulations generally would exclude, among other items, original issue discount and market discount (in either case, whether or not de minimis) from the applicability of the book/tax conformity rule. Although the proposed regulations generally will not be effective until taxable years beginning after the date on which they are issued in final form, taxpayers generally are permitted to elect to rely on their provisions currently. Accrual-basis holders should consult with their tax advisors regarding the potential applicability of the book/tax conformity rule to their particular situation.

The following discussion is added as the last paragraph under the heading “Taxation—United Stated Federal Taxation—Purchase, Sale and Retirement of Debt Securities” in the accompanying prospectus:

As discussed above under “ROC Taxation—Sale of the Notes,” a holder that sells the notes on or after January 1, 2027 may be subject to the ROC securities transaction tax. If applied in its current form, it is expected that a U.S. holder (as defined in the accompanying prospectus) would not be permitted to deduct or credit such tax for U.S. federal income purposes, but it would reduce the amount that it realizes upon the sale by the amount of such tax.

Foreign Affairs, International Organizations and International Economic Cooperation

On November 27, 2020, the Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) and the Corte Permanente de Arbitraje (Permanent Court of Arbitration) formalized an Acuerdo Marco de Cooperación (Framework Cooperation Agreement) with the aim of promoting the use of alternative means of peaceful dispute resolution such as arbitration, conciliation, mediation and capacity building in Mexican tribunals. This agreement will help to disseminate these dispute resolution methods, contribute to the exchange of information and serve as a link between the academic and the private sectors, including through the preparation of joint publications. The agreement also calls for the organization of seminars, internship programs, workshops and other events, as well as the disclosure of material actions in the field of arbitration and dispute resolution.

On December 15, 2020, the United Kingdom and Mexico signed a continuity trade agreement that will ensure that trade between the two countries will not be disrupted after the Brexit transition period ends next year. Both countries have also committed to negotiating a new trade agreement in 2021.

Environment

On December 2, 2020, the High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy (the Ocean Panel), which Mexico has belonged to since 2018, published the Transformations for a Sustainable Ocean Economy: A Vision for Protection, Production and Prosperity. The fourteen member countries of the Ocean Panel have committed to sustainably manage 100% of the oceanic area under their jurisdiction by 2025, guided by the Sustainable Ocean Plans, which describe policies and mechanisms to facilitate sustainable use of the ocean and value creation for current and future generations. This new agenda will help maximize food production from the ocean, generate more renewable energy, alleviate poverty and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

On December 9, 2020, the Government published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación (Official Gazette) the Decree approving the Acuerdo Regional sobre el Acceso a la Información, la Participación Pública y el Acceso a la Justicia en Asuntos Ambientales en América Latina y el Caribe (Regional Agreement on Access to Information, Public Participation and Justice in Environmental Matters in Latin America and the Caribbean). This Agreement, adopted on March 4, 2018 in Escazú, Costa Rica, seeks to strengthen international cooperation, protect the right of present and future generations to live in a healthy environment and contribute to sustainable development. Under this Agreement, the signatory governments also commit to protecting individuals, groups and organizations that promote and defend human rights in environmental matters so that they can operate without threats, restrictions and insecurity. Ten States have ratified the Agreement, which will be entered into force after ratification by eleven States.

THE ECONOMY

General

Mexico’s economy in 2020 was, and continues to be, adversely affected by COVID-19. For more information on the measures taken by the Government designed to address the pandemic, see “Recent Developments—COVID-19 Crisis” in the 2019 Form 18-K.

On November 30, 2020, the Government and private sector entities announced a second agreement to promote infrastructure investment and boost economic recovery. This agreement contemplates twenty-nine new projects in the energy, communications and transportation, water, sanitation and environmental sectors, with a total investment of Ps. 228.6 billion.

Gross Domestic Product

Mexico’s economy contracted by 9.6% in the first nine months of 2020, reflecting the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy in general and including, in particular, increased unemployment and underemployment and lower short-term consumer demand. Projections for Mexico’s economic performance for the full year 2020 and beyond have been adjusted downwards, and further adjustment of the projections remains possible. The economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are coupled with existing, persistent low levels of investment, which are also expected to contribute to economic contraction. For more information on the long-term factors affecting Mexico’s GDP, see “The Economy—Gross Domestic Product” in the 2019 Form 18-K.

The following tables set forth the composition of Mexico’s real GDP by economic sector and percentage change by economic sector, in pesos and in percentage terms, for the periods indicated.

According to preliminary figures, Mexico’s GDP decreased by 9.6% in real terms during the first nine months of 2020. This reflects the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the actions implemented to contain its spread and to protect public health. In the third quarter of 2020, GDP recorded an estimated recovery, although activity remained below levels seen prior to the health crisis. The upward trend was driven by a recovery in external demand compared to the end of the previous quarter and by the relaxation of certain COVID-19 lockdown measures that had been in place since the end of May 2020. However, the recovery in domestic demand has been more moderate.

Employment and Labor

Under the United States-Mexico-Canada Trade Agreement (USMCA), Mexico committed to reforming its labor system. The reforms are underway and are expected to include a new labor justice system with specialized courts intended to expedite resolution of labor conflicts and more democratic processes around union-related voting as well as new processes to ensure better gender equality, transparency and accountability in union directives and collective bargaining. In addition, on November 18, 2020 the Centro Federal de Conciliación y Registro Laboral (Federal Center for Labor Conciliation and Registration), an entity that is responsible for keeping records of unions and collective contracts at the national level and monitoring the interests and rights of workers, began operating in seven states. In 2021, fourteen new entities are expected to join this labor justice system. For more information about the USMCA, see “Foreign Trade and Balance of Payments—Foreign Trade—Foreign Trade Relations and Agreements—Regional” in the 2019 Form 18-K.

S-21

According to preliminary Tasa de Desocupación Abierta (open unemployment rate) figures, Mexico’s unemployment rate was 4.7% as of October 31, 2020, a 1.8 percentage point increase from the rate on December 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, the economically active population in Mexico fifteen years of age and older was 57 million. As of January 3, 2021, the minimum wage was Ps. 213.39 per day for the Zona Libre de la Frontera Norte (Northern Border Free Trade Zone) and Ps. 141.70 per day for the rest of Mexico, which has been in effect since January 1, 2021. For additional information on Mexico’s minimum wage policy, see “The Economy—Employment and Labor” in the 2019 Form 18-K.

On December 16, 2020, the Ley del Seguro Social (Social Security Law) and the Ley de Sistema de Ahorro para el Retiro (Law of Pension System) were amended (i) to increase retirement contributions made by employers, (ii) to reduce the number of weeks of contribution required to achieve the right to a guaranteed pension, (iii) to increase the amount of the guaranteed pension and (iv) to limit the fees charged by retirement fund administrators to an average of fees charged in certain other countries.

For information on the COVID-19 pandemic including Government policies related to employment and labor, see “Recent Developments–COVID-19 Crisis” in the 2019 Form 18-K.

Principal Sectors of the Economy

Beginning in March 2020, the economic slowdown attributable to the COVID-19 outbreak has affected various sectors and the overall performance of Mexico’s economy. The economic impact will likely be felt across all sectors, but it is too early to determine the ultimate magnitude of the impact.

Manufacturing

The following table shows the value of industrial manufacturing output by sector in billions of constant 2013 pesos and the percentage change of each sector as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.

Petroleum and Petrochemicals

On October 28, 2020, the Secretaría de Energía (Ministry of Energy, or SENER), in coordination with the Comisión Nacional de Hidrocarburos (National Hydrocarbons Commission), approved the Plan Quinquenal de Licitaciones para la Exploración y Extracción de Hidrocarburos 2020-2024 (Five-Year Tender Plan for the Exploration and Extraction of Hydrocarbons 2020-2024, or Plan Quinquenal). The Plan Quinquenal identifies a total of 155,322 square kilometers of hydrocarbon exploration and extraction areas that are available for contractual bidding and includes total prospective resources of 12,645 million barrels of crude oil equivalent, excluding the resources that have already been awarded to PEMEX and to other exploration and extraction contracts.

On November 5, 2020, SENER approved a second Plan Quinquenal de Expansión del Sistema de Transporte y Almacenamiento Nacional Integrado de Gas Natural 2020-2024 (Five-Year Expansion Plan for the Integrated National Natural Gas Transportation and Storage System 2020-2024). This second Five-Year Plan identifies infrastructure needs required to meet Mexico’s long-term demand for natural gas, which will be integrated with projects developed in the coming years to transport and store natural gas, along with other strategic and social projects that SENER determines necessary.

On December 26, 2020, SENER published in the Official Gazette new regulations with respect to the permitting process involved in the importing and exporting of fuels and nuclear materials in Mexico. The regulations are intended to combat tax evasion, customs fraud and smuggling with respect to hydrocarbons and adapt to the current flow of international trade.

Transportation and Communications

Mexico, along with Argentina, Bolivia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, is working on the Sistema Integral Regional de Información Satelital (Integrated Regional Satellite Information System, or SIRIS). The platform will allow Mexico access to relevant satellite data to (i) receive information on relevant variables in the agricultural and forestry sectors, (ii) monitor forest fires and other important meteorological variables and (iii) receive disease risk stratification maps and information to visualize values of socio-environmental and social indicators that predispose the spread of certain diseases at a regional level.

FINANCIAL SYSTEM

Monetary Policy, Inflation and Interest Rates

Inflation

Consumer inflation for the first nine months of 2020 was 4.0%, which was above Banco de México’s 3.0% (+/- 1.0%) target inflation for the year, 1.2 percentage points higher than the 2.8% consumer inflation for 2019 and 0.8 percentage points lower than the 4.8% consumer inflation for 2018. In the third quarter of 2020, inflation continued to be influenced by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, after registering a particularly low inflation level in April, annual headline inflation increased in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the previous quarter, due to both higher core inflation and a significant increase in non-core inflation. Annual core inflation, which better reflects medium-term price pressures on the economy, was 4.0% for the first nine months of 2020, 0.4 percentage points higher than the 3.6% core inflation for 2019.

The following table shows, in percentage terms, the changes in price indices and increases in the minimum wage for the periods indicated.

On December 31, 2020, the 28-day Cetes rate was 4.2% and the 91-day Cetes rate was 4.3%.

On December 17, 2020, Banco de México held its ninth monetary policy meeting of 2020 and maintained the overnight interbank funding rate at 4.25%. This decision considered the ongoing adverse economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, recent declines in headline inflation rates, continued uncertainty regarding inflation forecasts and short- and medium-terms risks affecting inflation including pressures generated by end-of-year merchandise spending and a negative output gap due to the possibility of additional social distancing measures.

On December 31, 2020, the peso/dollar exchange rate closed at Ps. 19.9087 = U.S.$1.00, a 5.5% depreciation in dollar terms as compared to the rate on December 31, 2019. The peso/U.S. dollar exchange rate published by Banco de México on December 31, 2020 (which took effect on the second business day thereafter) was Ps. 19.8570 = U.S.$1.00.

On December 7, 2020, the Comisión de Cambios (Foreign Exchange Commission) of Banco de México announced a dollar credit auction that will use resources from the temporary U.S. dollar liquidity swap line arrangement in an amount up to U.S.$60 billion that was established on March 19, 2020 as a liquidity backstop to mitigate strains in the global funding markets. On December 9 and December 14, 2020, Banco de México offered $1.5 billion to renew the maturities of two swap operations held in September 2020.

Banking System

On November 13, 2020, the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores (National Banking and Securities Commission, or CNBV) announced that it made additions to the regulatory facilities designed for credit restructurings, specifically to benefit clients of credit institutions in light of the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The additions included, among other things, permitting credit institutions to allow their clients to renew or restructure their facilities and report only a “soft mark” or no mark to credit reporting agencies, under rules similar to the Facilidades Contables Covid (COVID Accounting Facilities), which are a package of financial measures that support the restructuring or renewal of credits.

Banking Supervision and Support

At the end of September 2020, the Índice de Capitalización (Capitalization Index, or ICAP) for the multiple banking sector was 17.2%, as compared to 16.5% at the end of June 2020 and 15.8% at the end of March 2020. As a result, the institutions of multiple banking remained in the first “early warning” category. This category indicates that the institutions met the minimum capitalization requirements and were sufficiently capitalized in the face of unexpected loss scenarios. No immediate supervisory actions by the CNBV are required at this stage. For more information on ICAP, see “Financial System—Banking Supervision and Support—Bank Supervision Policy” in the 2019 Form 18-K.

Securities Markets

On December 31, 2020, the Índice de Precios y Cotizaciones (Stock Market Index, or the IPC), which is calculated based on a group of the
thirty-five most actively traded shares, stood at 44,067 points, representing a 1.2% increase from the level at December 31, 2019.

In the third quarter of 2020, Mexico’s current account registered a surplus of U.S.$17.5 billion, or 6.7% of GDP, compared to a deficit of U.S.$434.6 million, or 0.1% of GDP, in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in the current account deficit was mainly due to a considerable increase in the surplus of the non-oil trade balance, although the reduction of the deficit in the oil balance and the dynamism of remittances also contributed to this result.

These figures do not reflect actual results for the year or updated estimates of Mexico’s 2020 and 2021 economic results.

(3) The Government entered into hedging agreements to mitigate the effects of a change in oil prices with respect to the level that was assumed in the 2020 and 2021 Revenue Law. Therefore, the approved expenditures level should not be affected if the weighted average price of crude oil exported by PEMEX for the year falls below the price assumed in the 2020 Budget and 2021 Budget.

(4) Includes the effect of expenditures related to the issuance of bonds pursuant to reforms to the Ley del Instituto de Seguridad y Servicios Sociales de los Trabajadores del Estado (Law of the Institute for Social Security and Social Services of Government Workers, or ISSSTE Law) and the recognition as public sector debt of certain long-term infrastructure-related projects (PIDIREGAS) obligations, as discussed under “Public Finance—Revenues and Expenditures—General” in the 2019 Form 18-K.

IMF Credit Lines

On November 18, 2020, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) confirmed that Mexico continues to fulfill the criteria to access the IMF’s Flexible Credit Line (FCL). The criteria include, among others, (i) sustainable public debt and healthy public finances, (ii) manageable debt risks, (iii) low and stable inflation, (iv) stable access to the international capital markets, (v) good levels of international reserves and (vi) a robust and solvent financial system. The Ministry of Finance and Banco de México also reported that the IMF’s Executive Board completed its mid-term review of the FCL granted to Mexico in November 2019. In addition, the IMF affirmed that, in spite of the shocks to Mexico’s economy due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the economy has demonstrated resilience because of strong institutional policies and frameworks, including a flexible exchange rate regime, a credible inflation-targeting framework, the Federal Budget and Fiscal Responsibility Law and a well-regulated financial sector.

External Securities Offerings and Liability Management Transactions

On November 24, 2020, Mexico issued U.S.$3,396,062,000 of its 2.659% Global Notes due 2031 and U.S.$3,208,201,000 of its 3.771% Global Notes due 2061. Mexico used a portion of the proceeds from this offering to redeem in full U.S.$1,761,006,000 of its outstanding 3.625% Global Notes due 2022 and €1,500,000,000 of its outstanding 1.875% Global Notes due 2022.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The underwriters severally have agreed to purchase, and Mexico has agreed to sell to them, the principal amount of the notes listed opposite their names below. The terms agreement, dated as of January 4, 2021, between Mexico and the underwriters provides the terms and conditions that govern this purchase.

Underwriters	Principal Amount of Notes		Underwriting Commission
Deutsche Bank AG, Taipei Branch	U.S. $	2,270,000,000	U.S. $	1,694,000
Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C., Taipei Branch	U.S. $	200,000,000	U.S. $	1,683,000
HSBC Bank (Taiwan) Limited	U.S. $	250,000,000	U.S. $	1,683,000
Morgan Stanley Taiwan Limited	U.S. $	280,000,000	U.S. $	1,540,000
Total	U.S. $	3,000,000,000	U.S. $	6,600,000

Deutsche Bank AG, Taipei Branch, Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C., Taipei Branch, HSBC Bank (Taiwan) Limited and Morgan Stanley Taiwan Limited are acting as joint underwriters in connection with the offering of the notes.

The underwriters plan to offer the notes to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. After the initial offering of the notes, the underwriters may vary the offering price and other selling terms.

In the case of offering or sale of the notes outside Taiwan, to the extent permitted by ROC laws and regulations, the underwriters may offer and sell the notes through certain of their respective affiliates. Deutsche Bank AG, Taipei Branch, Goldman Sachs (Asia) L.L.C., Taipei Branch, HSBC Bank (Taiwan) Limited and Morgan Stanley Taiwan Limited are not U.S. registered broker-dealers and, therefore, to the extent permitted by ROC laws and regulations and that they intend to effect any sales of the notes in the United States, they will do so through one or more U.S. registered broker-dealers in accordance with the applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations.

The underwriters are purchasing and offering the notes, subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of the validity of the notes by counsel and other conditions contained in the terms agreement, such as the receipt by the underwriters of certificates of officials and legal opinions. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders, in whole or in part.

Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with Mexico or its affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of Mexico or its affiliates. If any of the underwriters or their affiliates has a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

S-32

Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in and may in the future engage in other transactions with and perform services for Mexico. These transactions and services are carried out in the ordinary course of business.

It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on the tenth business day following the date hereof (such settlement cycle being referred to herein as “T+10”). Trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes on the date hereof or the next seven business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+10, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade the notes on the date hereof or the next seven business days should consult their own advisors.

The net proceeds to Mexico from the sale of the notes will be approximately U.S. $2,993,100,000, after the deduction of the underwriting commission and Mexico’s share of the expenses in connection with the sale of the notes, which are estimated to be approximately U.S. $300,000.

The underwriters have agreed to pay for certain expenses of Mexico in connection with the offering of the notes.

Mexico has agreed to indemnify the several underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Selling Restrictions

The notes are being offered for sale in jurisdictions where it is legal to make such offers. The notes will not be sold or offered in any place without compliance with the applicable laws and regulations of that place. There will not be any distribution or publication of any document or information relating to the notes in any place without compliance with the applicable laws and regulations of that place. If you receive this prospectus supplement and the related prospectus, then you must comply with the applicable laws and regulations of the place where you (a) purchase, offer, sell or deliver the notes or (b) possess, distribute or publish any offering material relating to the notes. Your compliance with these laws and regulations will be at your own expense.
