Keep your REPSE current and your file ready for your clients

If you provide specialized services or works, you need a current registration in the Labor Ministry's REPSE and must keep up with periodic filings. Without it, your clients can't deduct your invoices or credit the VAT, and they are jointly liable for your employees.

  • Registration and renewal with the STPS, with the application filed on time
  • Four-monthly filings with IMSS and INFONAVIT and the filing with the STPS
  • File for client audits: contracts, stamped payroll, contributions and certificates

What's at stake

The size of the fine

The size of the fine

Subcontracting or providing specialized services without registration: 2,000 to 50,000 UMAs (art. 1004-C Federal Labor Law).

–

For guidance only. The UMA changes every February: the preloaded value is 2025's; update it to the current one. The four-monthly filings with IMSS and INFONAVIT are due on the 17th of January, May and September.

Why it matters

REPSE isn't just another formality. It's what allows you to get paid.

1

Your clients can't deduct

Without a current REPSE, your clients can't deduct your invoices or credit the VAT. It's a frequent reason to suspend payments or switch suppliers.

2

Significant fines

Subcontracting without registration is punished with fines of 2,000 to 50,000 UMAs, plus consequences with IMSS and INFONAVIT.

3

Your clients' audits

Large companies review the contract, corporate purpose, stamped payroll, contributions and REPSE. If a document is missing, the process stops.

Frequently asked questions

What clients usually ask us

Who needs REPSE registration?

Companies and individuals that provide specialized services or works with their own staff, when those services are not part of their client's corporate purpose or main activity.

How often is it renewed?

Every three years. It's best to prepare the application in advance so you're not left without a current registration while the STPS decides.

How long does the STPS take to decide?

The STPS decides on its own timeline. We file the application as soon as we have your complete documents and follow up.

Which filings must I submit?

The four-monthly filings on specialized service contracts with IMSS and INFONAVIT, and the filing with the STPS. We leave you a calendar with the dates.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the scope and the information you already have. After the assessment we send a written proposal with a fixed fee and no hidden charges.
