Delay of mandatory implementation of CFDI version 4.0

The new CFDI version 4.0, which is intended to replace CFDI version 3.3, was due to become mandatory on 1 May 2022.

The tax administration in Mexico, Servicio de Administracion Tributaria (SAT) subsequently announced that the mandatory usage of CFDI 4.0 was delayed again by a further 2 months, to become mandatory as of 30 June 2022. However, more recently on 9 March 2022, the Mexican Tax Administration issued a press release indicating that the transitional period has been further extended up until 30 September 2022. This extension also applies to version 2.0 of the withholding and payment information in respect of the CFDI. The usage of these documents continues to be optional up until 30 September 2022.
This delay affords many companies with much needed time to adjust to the new changes. This extension also applies to version 2.0 of the withholding and payment information in respect of the CFDI.

Tungsten Network is reviewing its own implementation plans to accommodate the new CFDI version 4.0 considering the revised timeframes.
