![]() Technical documentation of the NFS-e has also been released, but these are not the definitive specifications, which are still to be approved by the National Standard Electronic Service Invoice Management Committee (CGNFS). Only after complete activation will taxpayers be able to issue invoices based on the unified standard. Activation involves configuring system parameters and amending municipal legislation to reflect the national system requirements. Once the agreement is signed, the municipality must activate the system within a certain deadline, which hasn’t been established. ![]() ![]() Additionally, the ADN allows adhering municipalities to distribute issued NFS-e among themselves and taxpayers. The ADN is the only mandatory module, as it ensures the integrity and availability of information contained in the documents issued is in the unified standard. The SNNFS-e offers several service modules and municipalities can choose which ones to adopt. It also creates the National Data Environment (ADN), the NFS-e unified repository. The system will allow issuance of the NFS-e in a national standard, through the web portal, mobile app or API (application programming interface). Since the bill proposed to regulate this issue ( PLP 521/2018) has been static in Congress since 2019, the agreement was designed to allow municipalities to voluntarily adopt the national standard, which then becomes mandatory for taxpayers. Adhesion to the system is voluntary for municipalities. The SNNFS-e introduces a unified standard layout for the issuance of the NFS-e, as well as a national repository of all e-documents generated within the system. The National System of the NFS-e (SNNFS-e) An agreement (Convênio NFS-e) recently signed by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Agency (RFB), the National Confederation of Municipalities (CNM), and other relevant entities, has established the National System of the NFS-e with a countrywide unified standard for the services e-invoice. However, important steps have been taken towards changing this scenario. This poses a significant compliance challenge, as e-invoicing is mandatory for nearly all taxpayers in the country. Each municipality has authority over the format and technical standard of the services e-invoice (NFS-e – nota fiscal de serviço eletrônica). The tax levied on consumption of services (ISSQN – Imposto Sobre Serviços de Qualquer Natureza) lies under the competence of the municipalities. As well as keeping up with daily legislative changes in its 26 states and the Federal District, the country has over 5,000 municipalities with different standards for e-invoicing. Brazil is known for its highly complex continuous transaction controls (CTC) e-invoicing system.
