Overview
- The mandate takes effect 15 business days after publication in the federal gazette, with activation expected around March 10.
- Online procedures covered include employer registration, assignment or cancellation of the Single Employer Registry, issuance of NPIE and digital certificates, and worker movement notices.
- For in-person procedures, biometric CURP will serve as identification, while a valid photo ID remains acceptable during its national rollout.
- Operational rules set RPU assignment in up to five business days, or up to ten for batches over 30, immediate cancellation, and digital certificates valid for two years.
- Requests initiated before the effective date may finish without e.firma, and employers are advised to verify or renew their digital signature as IMSS deploys a hybrid process model.
