The federal government shook up the game and implemented a new national system for issuing the Electronic Services Invoice (NFS-e).

And now? Well, the rule is clear: if you are an Individual Microentrepreneur and provide services to companies, you will need to connect to this new system.

The Simples Nacional Managing Committee (CGSN) is behind this novelty. The objective is to simplify the life of the MEI, establishing a unified invoice model for all corners of Brazil. The good news is that you don't have to run around chasing city hall licenses anymore, and it's all in the strip.

For example, if you're in Rio de Janeiro, you can say goodbye to Nota Carioca. Now it is only the national system that counts.
