    SAP Document and Reporting Compliance for Mexico: e-Invoice

    In this post we will discuss about electronic invoice needs and solutions for Mexico.

    The SAT (Servicio de Administración Tributaria), Mexico’s government agency responsible for tax and customs management services, determines several standards that Mexican companies must follow. These standards are related to the CFF (Fiscal Code de la Federación) and RMF (Resolución Miscelánea Fiscal), the main references of tax legislation in the country.

    Each RFC (unique registration code to identify taxpayers in Mexico) must manage different types of taxes and contributions. Among the main ones, we can mention: VAT (Impuesto al Valor Agregado), IETU (Impuesto Empresarial a Tasa Única), IEPS (Impuesto Especial sobre Producción y Servicios), ISR (Impuesto sobre la Renta), IMSS (Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social) , SAR (Ahorro System for the Retreat) and INFONAVIT (Instituto del Fondo Nacional de la Vivienda para los Trabajadores).

    One of the most important programs of the SAT is the CFDI (Digital Tax Evidence by Internet). This initiative includes different types of services related to electronic invoices, such as: issuance, consultation, download, cancellation, payment Complement (payments), Complement for foreign trade, invoice for the North Border Zone.
