The Tiergarten embassy coordinates with the Consulate General in Frankfurt and four honorary consulates (Hamburg, Hannover, Cologne, Munich) to serve approximately 20,000 Mexican nationals residing in Germany. Bilateral trade reached €29 billion in 2023, driven by Volkswagen, BMW, Audi and Mercedes-Benz production facilities across Mexico.

Cultural programming includes Día de los Muertos celebrations at the embassy and touring exhibitions of pre-Columbian art.Leer másLeer menos
