- Mexico’s SAT confirmed that the Constancia de Situación Fiscal (CSF) is not required to issue electronic invoices (CFDI).
- Conditioning CFDI issuance on the CSF is an infraction and can result in fines from MXN 21,420 to MXN 122,440.
- Only the recipient’s RFC, name or business name, postal code, and tax regime are needed for invoicing, which can be obtained without the CSF.
- The rule also applies to payroll invoicing; employers must not require the CSF from employees.
- Businesses must update billing policies to comply, or risk sanctions, while proper compliance will streamline invoicing and reduce unnecessary paperwork.
