MEIs precisam se preparar para mudança na emissão de NFSes a partir de abril.

MEIs will have to pay attention to a major change scheduled to begin in April. Starting next Monday, the 3rd, issuance of the electronic Service Invoice (NFSe) will be done through another portal.

By decision of the National Simplified Taxation Committee (CGSN), the documents can only be issued through the new national system. The municipal portals used previously will be discontinued or will only serve for consultation, cancellation, and issuance of old invoices.

The objective is to create a standard for entrepreneurs throughout Brazil and unify the service in one place. The new system allows MEIs to issue the NFSe throughout the national territory in a simplified and costless manner. So far, the country has had 5,570 different legislations and service invoices.

The document remains mandatory only for legal entities and optional for individuals. To provide support to municipalities and entrepreneurs, the Federal Revenue Service launched the Digital Tax Administration Platform in partnership with dozens of entities from economic sectors.

To carry out the service, follow the steps below:

1. Access the national invoice issuer or download the NFSe Mobile application (available for Android and iOS);
2. Click on “First Access” and fill in the requested data;
3. Provide an email, create a password, and validate using the numerical code sent to the registered email;
4. Ready, the registration is done.

The change is mandatory for MEI and does not apply to other types of companies. In case of doubts, access the booklet made available by Sebrae with all the information about the new system.
