Spain to Mexico is a third-country movement. Our sanctions register has no reviewed coverage for Mexico, so the answer shows the gap instead of assuming ordinary treatment.

Mexico outside our sanctions register's reviewed coverage
Our country-level register holds no programme for Mexico, but it lists only measures we have reviewed and is not exhaustive: silence here is a gap in our coverage, not a finding that no measure exists. EU binds this lane, so their measures on Mexico have to be checked at the authority before anyone relies on this. EU binds the supplier itself: a seller established in Spain follows its own export-control and sanctions rules whatever the currency.
Check the Mexico country measures at each binding authority (EU) · Screen the supplier, its owners, the consignee and the end user
No agreement found in our register
Our register of blocs and selected bilateral agreements has no entry covering Spain and Mexico. It is not exhaustive (for example it does not yet hold the EEA, the EU-Switzerland agreements or RCEP), so this is not a finding that no agreement exists or that MFN duty applies; check the WTO database before pricing.
