Transition period introduced for the Carta Porte version 2.0

We previously advised that the Carta Porte- a new transportation note that forms part of the CFDI- is mandatory to use from 1st January 2022. Tungsten can successfully process the new version.
Even though this is mandatory to use from 1st January 2022 (with the exception of certain foreign trade transactions, for which this is not mandatory until 31 March 2022), the Mexican tax authorities issued a statement on 24 December 2021 indicating a transition period from 1st January 2022 to 31 March 2022, where e-invoices can be corrected without being subject to penalties.
Mexico has also made it easier for domestic traders that perform exports under 30 kilometres on federal highways by ‘light load vehicles’- taxpayers falling under this scope will not need to complete the Carta Porte 2.0.
Our local partner Buzone has prepared a webinar which provides useful information around the Carta Porte, including error codes relating to the new version.
