Vehicle Verification Edomex 2026: Pink Sticker marks the next stage after the yellow expires

With half of February already underway, the official Vehicle Verification schedule in Edomex 2026 is accelerating. While the yellow sticker is in its final stretch, vehicle owners with pink stickers should prepare for the next phase of this mandatory process that defines legal circulation in the state.

Yellow sticker with plates 5 and 6: only a few days left to comply

Drivers with yellow stickers and plates ending in 5 or 6 are in the critical phase of the verification cycle. With the official schedule in its final stage, they only have seventeen days to complete the process before the official deadline. The cutoff date is Saturday, February 28, 2026, at which point the compliance window closes for this group of private vehicles registered in Edomex.

Environmental authorities emphasize the importance of scheduling an appointment in advance at authorized verification centers. This recommendation becomes even more relevant as the deadline approaches, since saturation in the last days of the two-month period can compromise obtaining the corresponding hologram. Those who miss this date will face penalties for late verification.

Pink sticker with plates 7 and 8: the next wave begins in February

As the yellow sticker period ends, the door opens simultaneously for the pink sticker. Vehicles with plates ending in 7 or 8 and pink stickers must start their procedures during February and extend their verification into March 2026. For this group, the official deadline is set for Tuesday, March 31, providing a full two-month period to meet the requirement.

The pink sticker represents the second link in the bi-monthly verification chain. Authorities maintain this staggered system based on the sticker color and the last digit of the plate to evenly distribute demand at verification centers and allow motorists to organize compliance with this environmental requirement without administrative congestion.

Complete schedule: know all dates by sticker and plate

The Vehicle Verification system in Edomex operates through two-month cycles distributed according to specific vehicle characteristics:

• Yellow sticker (plates 5 and 6): deadline February 28
• Pink sticker (plates 7 and 8): deadline March 31
• Subsequent cycles continue in a staggered manner

This administrative model ensures verification centers maintain an orderly flow of requests and prevents the saturation that characterized previous systems. Owners have clear information about their obligations and can plan their verification according to their specific sticker.

Financial penalties for non-compliance: fines that impact your wallet

Failing to meet the assigned period results in significant financial consequences. Late verification, that is, completing the process outside the designated two-month cycle, results in a fine of approximately 3,394 pesos, equivalent to 30 Unidad de Medida y Actualización (UMA).

Driving without a valid hologram is another serious infraction, penalized with about 2,263 pesos, or 20 UMA. These fines are added to operational restrictions on the vehicle, as non-compliance limits circulation according to the Hoy No Circula program and exposes the driver to additional infractions during verification patrols.

The recommendation is clear: comply within the assigned period to avoid financial penalties and maintain unrestricted circulation. Vehicle verification is not an optional procedure but an environmental obligation with direct legal consequences for those who fail to comply.
