kmetzger Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 I just went to my Bancomer site to check my account and was asked to update my numero de identificacion fiscal. Another question was "el RFC es correcto"? Can anyone tell me what that is? Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Quote RFC is a tax I.D. number for Mexico. The letters stand for Registro Federal de Contribuyentes. The Mexican Tax Administration Service assigns a unique number for each person. https://transferwise.com/us/blog/clabe-rfc-curp-abm-meaning-mexico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmetzger Posted September 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Thanks, cedros. Would my bank know what my tax ID is? If so, why are they asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Good question. My bank has my RFC number. I probably gave it to them. It was 10 years ago that I opened the account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmh Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Beware of made up RFC Shortly after we moved to Mexico Bancomer asked all their customers to have an RFC and they quicly came up with RFC for everyone and that was it.. Recently I found out that both our RFC was being rejected as no valid by many businesses.. We need facturas con our RFC to get reimbursed for medical expenses.. so the business would put generic RFC in order to produce a factura.. While I was in Chiapas I went to SAT ( the Mexican IRS) and asked them why our RFC was being rejected.. They quickly ssued to new numbers.. so no big deal.. but now that the system is computerized you may find out that the RFC that was issued byt the banks were just made up and do not work in the system.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
