Risk avoidance for Japanese local subsidiaries.
●Risks and Countermeasures Faced by Japanese Companies
For Japanese companies with a presence in Mexico, it is important to understand the CFDI system at the headquarters level rather than leaving it entirely to local management. This is especially true since the CFDI includes items that require judgment from the sales and accounting departments, making it risky to completely delegate to local accountants.
Key Points for Risk Mitigation
- Conduct regular reviews
- Visualize the issuance process
- Document supplementary information in internal manuals
By implementing these measures, you can minimize the risk of penalties due to deficiencies or omissions in supplementary information.
It should be noted that the CFDI system is still ongoing.
(Introduced in 2022 → Mandatory in 2023 → Valid in 2025)
CFDI 4.0 was introduced in 2022, and its issuance became mandatory in 2023. As of 2025, the SAT (Mexican Tax Authority) continues to maintain and strengthen this system, updating it as necessary.
