What’s New at Shopify?

Starting January 1, 2025, the Mexican government will require the collection of the tax ID, RFC (Registro Federal de Contribuyentes) on orders under $2,500 USD shipping into Mexico. To ensure compliance with these regulations, Shopify has introduced a new field titled “RFC” which can be found under “Additional Information” in the following areas:
* Checkout
* Orders and Draft Orders in admin

The RFC field must be populated with the customer’s RFC, CURP (Clave Única de Registro de Población), or their foreign tax identification number on orders shipping into Mexico.

Important Note: If you have existing checkout customizations enabled to collect tax IDs for Mexico, please disable them to avoid duplicate fields and confusion at checkout.
