New Mexico is a labeling state first, and the label itself is prescriptive.
From January 1, 2027 a non-exempt product with intentionally added PFAS needs an on-product flask symbol reading 'PFAS' in both English and Spanish, plus a website or QR link to the NMED page — and the disclosure has to appear on online listings too, not just the physical item. Sixteen statutory exemption categories carve out medical devices, semiconductors, solid fluoropolymers and used products, so scoping your catalog against that list is worth more here than anywhere else. Reporting starts the same year, and the 2032 catch-all then reaches virtually every remaining non-exempt product unless the Environmental Improvement Board designates the use as currently unavoidable.
