Raising Funds Through Services

When you get your Residencia permanente you are automatically assigned a CURP number. I am not "working" in Mexico per se, but I am renting my house. I had to go to the SAT office to get an RFC number. My accountant said that I needed all of this in order to pay taxes.

Should your work require that you have employees, you have to register with the social security office.

I'm still learning all of the nuances of "doing business" in Mexico, but this is what I've learned so far and I would strongly suggest engaging the services of a local accountant.
