- Starting January 1, 2026, new regulations will affect retail companies in Mexico issuing digital receipts (CFDI).
- The reforms target the issuance of false or fraudulent digital tax receipts that do not correspond to real transactions.
- Retailers must understand these changes to avoid penalties and operational disruptions.
- Issuing or using false CFDI can result in severe penalties, including two to nine years in prison and mandatory pretrial detention.
- Even one suspicious digital receipt can trigger investigations into all CFDI issued by a retailer.
