Buyer, Tax Registrations, and Items
Same structure as the Argentina Standard Invoice. Items represent only the amounts being corrected, not a copy of the full original.
FCE MiPyME
Same payload as the standard invoice with these differences:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
document_type | "mipyme" |
buyer.company.type | "business" only |
buyer.company.tax_registrations[].status | "Responsable inscripto" |
Common Mistakes
| Mistake | Fix |
|---|---|
Credit note with invoice_type: "debit" | Use invoice_type: "credit" |
Not sending original_invoice_id | Always link to the original document |
| Copying all items for a partial correction | Only include the amounts being corrected |
| FCE to an individual buyer | buyer.company.type must be "business" |
Different invoice_serie than the original | Must match the original's point of sale |
