Look into Elaire. They make 4mm and 6mm collets. Not sure if they ship international.

Well while Metric is the official system in Canada, we use the imperial system for most construction therefore all routers come with collets in incles and I suspect that Mexico is probably the same. Many folks in England regularly report in imperial.

Elaire is a good source for collets of different size and for many different router spindles. They also sell kits of different size instead of individual collets.

Elaire do ship internationally (I have purchased from them)
