The regulatory trigger

Customs Law 2026: digital traceability is now the law

Arts. 14, 14-A, 14-D, 135-B

Infrastructure interoperable with the Electronic Customs System, real-time monitoring, automated inventories and digital traceability of goods.

Arts. 81-A / 89-A RLA

Mandatory Electronic Customs File: CFDI, contracts, payments, transport and origin — the authority must be able to reconstruct the entire operation.

Rule 1.5.1 RGCE

Electronic Value Declaration: customs value and supporting file transmitted via VUCEM before clearance.

Art. 79 RLA · Annex 24

The inventory system must verifiably distinguish domestic from foreign goods, with CFDI ↔ COVE ↔ pedimento integrity.

The real risk

If the tax authority (SAT) cannot trace a temporarily imported input, it presumes illegal sale → IGI + VAT tax assessment, fines and, at the extreme, cancellation of the IMMEX program: the effective shutdown of the plant.

The diagnosis

Five layers of systems that don't talk to each other

  1. Corporate ERP

    SAP · Dynamics · QAD · Epicor · NetSuite — run from headquarters; the plant never touches it

  2. MES / Shop floor

    Ignition · Opcenter · FactoryTalk · AVEVA — or Excel, Access and inherited homegrown systems

  3. Foreign trade

    Annex 24 / 30: OneCore · MIC · SCAII — plus the customs broker's own system

  4. Tax

    CFDI 4.0 via PAC · payroll · payment complements · Carta Porte · electronic accounting

  5. Logistics / Customer

    EDI X12 (830 · 862 · 856 · 810) · WMS · labeling and supplier portals

How do they connect today?

With people and Excel.

Manual re-keying, PDFs in folders, paper at end of shift. Every re-keying is a possible error — and under the SAT's automated cross-checks, every error is detectable and punishable.

That gap between systems that exist and systems that talk is our market.

FAQ

What every plant asks first

Do you replace my SAP or my Annex 24 system?

No. The GIGAVI Core integrates around your systems; SAP, MES, PAC and VUCEM are channels that feed and consume the core. None is replaced.

What exactly does Customs Law 2026 require?

Digital traceability of goods, an electronic file per pedimento, a Value Declaration via VUCEM, and CFDI↔COVE↔pedimento↔inventory integrity. If the SAT can't trace an imported input, it presumes illegal sale.
