Slainte is exactly correct as far as (especially foreigners) who want to sell their house. I work in RE, and when a foreigner tells me they want to sell their property I ask:

Question #1: Do you have a resident visa? (Permanente or at least Temporal.)

Question #2: Do you have a CURP and an RFC#? You need them, and they need to be registered/reflected on your Telmex and/or CFE bill(s) depending upon potential tax liability upon sale.

It's all about ISR, "Impuestos Sobre la Renta", a punishing tax unless you qualify for exemption(s). (Yes, it's referred to as "Capital Gains Tax" by some...it's a misnomer.)

My take is Mexico is getting serious about collecting taxes, and it's not about foreigners. The mechanics of deliberate and serious tax collection from as many people as possible are getting placed into the Mexican Government system. (Remember when we had to get a CURP # just to have a cell phone? jajajaja!)

Maybe it's the recognition that the country can't rely so much on PEMEX going forward? I dunno, just speculating.

Whoa. Sorry. Back to renewing you car license plate...sorry!

I've had a RFC number for years. I notice that my CFE bill has a different RFC number. I may have several more who knows as it seems different government places issue different ones.

There is only one correct one, so check the SAT website and get it straightened out, as sometimes generic ones were used.

Also, in addition to what Rosa explained about real estate sales, is the fact, that if you want to use facturas from repairs and remodeling to reduce ISR, you must have valid facturas in the property owners name to be used for that purpose. That means a valid  RFC no. in the name of the property owner, important whether it is a sale or transfer to survivor.

People involved in legitimate businesses (rentals, restaurants, or any other "lucrativo"), reimbursements from insurance companies for medical expenses, and a host of other things, requires an RFC number.  Just about the only people who don't need one are 180 day tourists who never invest in property, vehicles, business ventures, obtain licenses, or anything that deals with the official Mexican bureaucracy.

My office can get people their RFCs as well as we can renew vehicle registration without any RFC or CURP in case someone bought and now doesnt have a visa, for vehicle renewals we charge 600 pesos total (you pay any fines).

Renewed my car tags in Poncitlan today, no request for a CURP# or RFC# - in fact I was able to renew two additional vehicles on behalf of people that were not with me- one of which is still on a Visitor's permit (so therefore no capability of getting a CURP#).  Go figure.

According to this weeks Guadalajara Reporter and Spencer you do not have to have CURP or RFC numbers to get your new tags.

Two weeks ago I took the GF to Ocotlan to replace a lost drivers license. I renewed my tags while I was there. $510 pesos, and hour in line, and a plate number written on a piece of paper, and I was out of there. I did have all the info as stated here, but there was not any questions asked.

Plates are a state thing. You can probably renew them anywhere in Jalsico??

Yes, like you can at a bank or other various locations, but would they have the calcomania, tarjeta, and refrendo, that would probably be in the recaudadera of your municipio de domocilio.

I am in Barra right now and do need to renew my vehicle. I'll see if there is an office in Melaque and try to do it there.

I renewed our car registration in Chapala last week. The only thing you need is your previous car registration. Although they hand out a form asking for other information, I checked with the man handing out the form, and he said that all this information is not necessary for renewing your car registration. And I proved it empirically - I also renewed the registration for our worker's car, and the only info I had for that was his previous registration. No problem.

I did fill out my form with my RFC, address, email etc and I assume they are inputting that information into a central database.

If your time and sanity has a value, Spencer's deal is best.

He did 4 vehicle renewals for me and it was painless.

Always wondered what that place was. Foreign plated cars had no need to know then. Thanks.

My friend and I renewed recently, they gave me the paper and I put it in my purse. When I got to the desk I just gave them my registration and it was renewed. When I got home I threw the paper in the trash. The info they are asking for is not required.

Yes, it would seem it is a voluntary thing at this point. Perhaps they are preparing for the day that an RFC is required to purchase or sell a vehicle?
