One Platform for the Entire Region

For businesses that operate across multiple countries - distribution companies, logistics providers, holding groups with regional offices - this is a game-changer.

Whether you're issuing a factura electrónica in Panama with a CUFE code, a CFDI in Mexico, or a comprobante fiscal in the Dominican Republic, the process inside cifraHQ looks the same. You create the invoice. The system does everything else.

  • One platform, one workflow, full compliance in every market
  • No juggling separate systems for each country
  • No hiring local compliance consultants
  • Same login, same interface, same chart of accounts

Without cifraHQ

  • Research each country's requirements separately
  • Select and implement local software for each market
  • Hire local consultants for compliance guidance
  • Train your team on multiple different systems
  • Worry constantly about document rejection

What Happens Behind the Scenes

When you post an invoice in cifraHQ, the platform executes a complete electronic invoicing workflow automatically - in seconds.

1

XML Document Generation

Generates the XML document in the exact format required by the destination country's tax authority - every field, every namespace, every validation rule.

2

Fiscal Code Assignment

Assigns the mandatory fiscal identification codes - such as the CUFE in Panama or the UUID in Mexico - that make each document legally valid and traceable.

3

Government Submission via PAC

Submits the document to the DGI through your chosen PAC provider. In Panama you can choose from Alanube or WebPOS, both DGI-certified providers. No manual uploads or portal logins.

4

Authorization Response

Receives and stores the authorization response confirming the document was accepted. Immediate notification if any issues require attention.

5

QR Code & Verification

Embeds the required QR code or verification code directly on the printed and PDF versions of the invoice for instant verification by recipients.

Full Visibility from the Invoice List

cifraHQ doesn't hide the electronic submission details in a buried settings page. Right from the main invoice list, you can see everything.

Each successfully submitted invoice displays a green icon that links directly to the official government-issued electronic invoice on the tax authority's portal.

This means your accounting team, your auditors, and your compliance officers can verify any invoice's fiscal status without leaving cifraHQ. During an audit, you're not scrambling through email archives or logging into government portals - every document and its official authorization are one click away.

Beyond Invoices: Credit Notes & Debit Notes

Electronic invoicing compliance doesn't stop at sales invoices. When you need to issue corrections, adjustments, or refunds, cifraHQ generates and submits electronic credit notes and debit notes through the same automated workflow. The fiscal codes, XML formatting, and government submission happen just as seamlessly as they do for standard invoices, keeping your entire document trail compliant and audit-ready.

Automatic Regulatory Updates

When the DGI or other tax authorities update their requirements, the certified PAC providers absorb those technical changes. Your invoicing workflow in cifraHQ continues without interruption.

This three-tier architecture - ERP, certified PAC, tax authority - ensures cifraHQ is always compliant with current regulations, no matter what changes the DGI introduces to the SFEP.

White-Glove Setup

  • We help you choose the right PAC for your operation
  • Configures the connection and validates credentials with your chosen PAC
  • Tests everything before your first electronic document
  • Ongoing support as you scale to new countries

Setup Without the Stress

Configuring electronic invoicing for a new country could easily become a technical project in itself - API endpoints, authentication credentials, branch codes, environment settings.

cifraHQ keeps the configuration screen clean and straightforward, but more importantly, the implementation team handles the onboarding and setup for each customer, including the connection to your chosen PAC.

This white-glove approach means you don't need in-house technical staff to get started with electronic invoicing in any of the six supported countries. You focus on your business; we make sure you're compliant.

Expanding to New Markets?

For growing businesses expanding into new markets, cifraHQ eliminates one of the most painful barriers to entry: fiscal compliance.

Instead of researching each country's requirements, selecting local software, hiring local consultants, and training your team on a new system, you simply request that the next country be enabled on your existing platform.
