Frequently Asked Questions
- Does he issue sales invoices?No. Our issuer only issues service invoices.
- I have my own issuer, is it possible to import my notes into the Facilite system?Yes, it is possible! You can download the notes in ".xml" format from your system and import them to our platform to keep your tax documents organized and already shared with your accountant.
- After the deadline for canceling an invoice has passed, what should I do?After 24 hours after issuing the note, the cancellation of the tax document can only be carried out through an administrative procedure. To do this, it is necessary to schedule the service in advance and present the necessary documents, required by the Subsecretariat of Revenue, located in the Inspection Department - the unit responsible for the NFS-e cancellation operation. But don't worry, your accountant partner will solve it for you. Another factor that is important to pay attention to is whether or not the service was provided. This is because the generating event for the ISS is the performance of the service. This way, if the service is not provided, there is no tax to be collected and the NFS-e can be cancelled. But if the service was provided, the tax will need to be paid even if the policyholder has not paid the service note to the provider. This makes it impossible to cancel NFS-e.
- Is it possible to cancel an invoice through the Facilite system?Yes, within 24 hours of issuing the note. After this period, only through an administrative process with the city hall. But within 24 hours it is possible to cancel any NF-e through our platform. Simply select the note in question and click Cancel.

This process takes one to two days, after the viability is released, we draw up the social contract and send it for signature. The documents must be signed and sent to our office, which will be registered with the Commercial Board immediately. After this stage, the CNPJ is released within an average of 5 business days.
