How to Issue an MEI Invoice for Products Step by Step In the product sales scenario, understanding how to issue an MEI invoice for products is essential. In this video, we will cover all the necessary steps so that you can issue an invoice correctly and efficiently. The first step to issue an MEI invoice for products is to ensure that your MEI CNPJ is active. Without an active CNPJ, issuing invoices will not be possible. It is important to differentiate between the types of invoices: the NF-e, intended for products, and the NFS-e, for services. For those who sell products, the correct invoice is the NF-e. Confusing these types of invoices can cause problems, so be careful. The obligation to issue invoices varies depending on whether you have a MEI CNPJ. When selling to an individual (CPF), issuing an invoice is not mandatory, unless the customer requests it. When selling to a legal entity (CNPJ), issuing an invoice is mandatory. Therefore, whenever you sell to companies, you must issue an invoice. A relevant point is the amount of tax paid. Regardless of how many invoices you issue per month, the monthly tax amount remains fixed, as long as your annual revenue does not exceed R$81,000.00. Currently, the monthly tax for products is approximately R$70.00. This rate may vary slightly depending on the service provided, but for products, it remains stable. To issue an MEI invoice for products, you will need a digital certificate, which works like a digital signature. There are two main types of certificates: e-CNPJ and NFe. The EMEI digital certificate, despite its name, is not used to issue invoices for products. The digital certificate can be type A1, valid for one year and installed on the computer, or A3, valid for 1 to 5 years, and can be stored on a card, token or in the cloud. The A1 certificate costs around R$150.00 to R$200.00 per year, while the A3 is a little more expensive due to its longer validity. Several companies provide digital certificates, such as Serasa Experian, Certisign and Safeweb. When you obtain your digital certificate, you will need to register with the State Treasury Department (SEFAZ) to request voluntary accreditation for issuing NFes. In addition, most states require registration with the Electronic Taxpayer Domicile (DEC). Once you have completed your digital certificate and the necessary registrations, it is time to choose an invoice issuing software. There are paid options, such as Bling, Tiny and Omie, which offer more automation and integration with e-commerce platforms, and free options, such as Sebrae's NFe issuer. If you choose paid software, integration with the online store facilitates the automated issuance of invoices, reducing errors and speeding up the process. With Sebrae's free issuer, you will need to manually fill in all the information, such as consumer data, delivery location, product data, shipping method, price and payment method. To issue an MEI invoice for products, you must follow these steps: select the purpose of the invoice (normal or return), type of issuance (normal or contingency), type of invoice (incoming or outgoing), and indicate whether there is an intermediary (marketplace). In addition, you must inform the type of service (non-face-to-face for online sales), consumer data, delivery location, product data, shipping method, price, and payment method. Using paid software such as Bling or Tiny offers the advantage of automation, integrating directly with the e-commerce platform and automatically filling in the necessary information. This reduces the margin of error and makes issuing invoices easier. By following these steps, you will be able to issue an MEI invoice for products correctly, quickly, and without complications.
