After Mexico’s tax reform took effect in 2026, many sellers on Meitodo received notifications in their account dashboards stating that the tax ID verification requirements had been updated and the tax rate structure had been adjusted.
It’s not a matter of “just doing things the way we used to”; rather, following the tax reform, some practices that could previously be glossed over no longer work.

Change 1: Real-time synchronization of platform data with the tax authority
Prior to the tax reform, Meike Duo submitted data to the Mexican Tax Administration (SAT) in periodic batches, which resulted in delays. Following the tax reform, the platform’s sales data and tax ID binding status were changed toReal-time SynchronizationThe
This means that, in the past, when a business used someone else’s tax ID, it might have taken the tax authorities several months to notice; now, with real-time data transmission, the time it takes to detect such irregularities has been significantly reduced.
Change 2: SAS’s sales cap has been tightened from 5 million pesos
The statutory annual sales cap for SAS (Simplified Joint-Stock Company) remains unchanged, but the SAT has significantly stepped up its monitoring efforts following the tax reform. Businesses with annual sales exceeding 5 million pesos (just over 200,000 RMB) that have not been mandatorily upgraded to SA status face a more immediate risk of tax account freezes and fines than before.
For Meike Duo sellers with stable monthly sales, the 5 million peso annual cap is easy to reach.
Change 3: The conditions for applying the optimal tax bracket are clearer
Following the tax reform, the eligibility criteria for the 10.51 TP3T optimal tax rate bracket have been clarified: a valid RFC tax ID, a properly registered Mexican corporate entity, and complete records of input tax credits are required.All three conditions are essential.
It’s not that “simply linking a tax ID will lower the rate to 10.51 TP3T,” but rather that “only compliant operations can lower the rate to 10.51 TP3T.”
| Seller Type | Before the tax reform | After the tax reform | suggestion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Registering Under a SAS Tax ID | Risks are hidden; can be affiliated long-term | Real-time data synchronization, amplified risks | Evaluate whether to upgrade to a proprietary tax ID number |
| Registering Under an SA Tax ID Number | Moderate risk; acceptable for now | Increased Frequency of Platform Verifications | Accelerating the Process of Obtaining a Tax ID Number |
| Own RFC Tax ID | Compliance Operations | Operate in compliance and enjoy a tax rate of 10.51 TP3T | Stay compliant and keep accurate records of deductions |

Tax reform doesn’t suddenly change the rules; rather, it transforms risks that already existed from “hidden” to “explicit.” In the past, you could gamble on the platform not catching you, but now that data is synchronized in real time, the element of risk is becoming increasingly significant.
If your monthly revenue has reached a level where it can cover the costs of registering your own tax ID, obtaining your own tax ID following the tax reform is no longer an “option,” but rather “something you’ll have to do sooner or later.”
