Corp 117 final bundle: Mexican gas station network

The corp 117 final bundle equips the dispenser, the station manager and the technician of the Mexican gas station network (Pemex, BP, Shell, Mobil, Repsol, G500, Fullgas, Onexpo) with the NOM-004 antistatic uniform, NOM-003 fuel-handling PPE, CRE and spill-handling training kit, corporate backpack, engraved flask. The CFDI 4.0 invoice runs under key E48 with deduction under Article 27 LISR with attention to IEPS in border zones.

The Mexican gas station network and CRE regulation

Mexico has more than 13,500 fuel service stations that sell more than 750,000 barrels of gasoline and diesel per day. The network is composed of Pemex stations (40%), international brand stations (BP, Shell, Mobil, Repsol, Total, Arco) at 25%, Mexican brand stations (G500, Fullgas, Onexpo, Hidrosina) at 25%, and independent stations at 10%. CRE (Comision Reguladora de Energia) supervises fuel quality, maximum prices and compliance with applicable NOMs.

The 2013-2014 energy reform opened the fuel market to private competition, allowing the entry of international brands (BP, Shell, Mobil, Repsol) and the expansion of Mexican brands (G500, Fullgas, Onexpo). CRE supervises the quality of fuels sold, the maximum prices to the public, the sales volume and the compliance with NOMs. The non-compliant station faces fines from $500,000 to $50,000,000 MXN and suspension of the authorisation.

The Mexican gas station corporate operates under a specific fiscal regime. Fuel sales are subject to IEPS (Impuesto Especial sobre Produccion y Servicios) with variable rates by fuel type and geographic zone. Magna gasoline has IEPS of $5.49 MXN per litre, Premium gasoline has IEPS of $4.69 MXN per litre and diesel has IEPS of $6.04 MXN per litre in 2026. In border zones the IEPS is reduced by 50% or rated at $0 depending on the border fiscal stimulus decree.

The corp 117 final bundle equips the gas station corporate to comply with CRE regulation and with the NOMs applicable to fuel handling. The antistatic uniform complies with NOM-004-STPS-1999 on PPE identification. The fuel-handling PPE complies with NOM-003-STPS-1999 on hazardous-substance handling. Training for the dispenser and the station manager covers customer-service protocol, spill handling and CRE compliance.

How the gas station network kit is invoiced

The corp 117 final bundle is invoiced under CFDI use key G03 (general expenses) with line-by-line breakdown. The deductibility runs under Article 27 LISR as an expense strictly indispensable in service-station operation. For gas station corporates under the RESICO or REPECO regime, the deduction runs under the same article as long as the expense is tied to the business purpose. For corporates under the free-zone regime, IVA is rated at 0% with the Free Zone complement.

The uniform and PPE are invoiced with key E48 (work equipment) or H89 (goods not covered) depending on the piece. The backpack and flask are invoiced under key E46 (product not classified). The manual and teaching material are invoiced with key H87 (training) or P01 (to be defined). The encrypted USB is invoiced under key S01 (consulting services). The DC-3 certificate is attached to the dispenser's training file.

For gas station corporates with stations in border zones, the kit invoice takes advantage of the border fiscal stimulus that reduces IVA to 8% in the northern border zone or applies reduced IEPS in the southern border zone. The invoice runs with normal IVA breakdown and the stimulus application. The deductibility runs under Article 27 LISR regardless of the IVA regime.

The gas station corporate with a network of more than 50 stations issues one consolidated monthly invoice for all deliveries of the month. The invoice breaks down by station, date, number of trained employees and individual amount. The deductibility runs under the same Article 27 LISR regardless of frequency. The supporting documentation includes the station manager-signed employee list, the DC-3 certificates issued, and the monthly training report to the STPS.

CRE, IEPS and the fiscal regime of Mexican gas stations

CRE (Comision Reguladora de Energia) is the Mexican regulatory authority of the energy sector that supervises the production, distribution, storage and commercialisation of fuels. CRE regulates the maximum prices to the public of fuels, the quality of fuels sold, the compliance with NOMs by permisionarios and the technical operation of service stations. CRE inspection of the station verifies compliance and omission triggers a fine.

IEPS (Impuesto Especial sobre Produccion y Servicios) is the federal tax that levies fuel sales in Mexico. The IEPS rate varies by fuel type and geographic zone. In 2026, Magna gasoline has IEPS of $5.49 MXN per litre, Premium gasoline has IEPS of $4.69 MXN per litre, and diesel has IEPS of $6.04 MXN per litre. In border zones the IEPS is reduced by 50% as part of the border fiscal stimulus.

The border fiscal stimulus is a mechanism that reduces the IEPS in border zones to match Mexican fuel prices with American prices and reduce the flow of cross-border purchases. The stimulus applies in the northern border zone (full states of Baja California, Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo Leon, Tamaulipas, and border municipalities of Sinaloa) and the southern border zone (full states of Chiapas, Campeche, Quintana Roo, and border municipalities of Tabasco and Yucatan).

The Mexican service station issues a CFDI 4.0 for each fuel sale with IEPS breakdown and, where applicable, the border fiscal stimulus. The invoice includes the client RFC when invoicing, the volume sold, the unit price, the IEPS, the IVA and the total. For gas station corporates with electronic invoicing systems, the corp 117 final bundle kit includes specific training in handling CFDI 4.0 with IEPS.
