Most international SWIFT wires arrive in Mexico within 2–5 business days. Payments cleared through correspondent banks may take longer depending on intermediary routing and local cut-off times.
Mexico processes large-value interbank settlements through SPEI. Retail transfers typically use ACH or local clearing networks, while cross-border wires enter via SWIFT.
The primary settlement currency is MXN — Mexican Peso. Foreign-currency wires are converted at the receiving bank's prevailing rate unless a specific currency account is held at the beneficiary institution.
