Service invoices and Brazil's tax reform
challenge Explain a new tax rule, with the right dates and rates, in a short post.
Tax reform has reached the law firm's own routine. In 2026, the new CBS and IBS taxes appear on invoices for information only, at a 1% test rate: 0.9% CBS and 0.1% IBS.
For service invoices, the rule has applied since October 1, under Joint Act RFB/CGIBS No. 4 of July 30, 2026. For companies under the Simples Nacional regime, the date is January 1, 2027. Law firms issue electronic service invoices (NFS-e), and the test year gives them time to adapt the process with guidance.
Three conversations help. With the accountant, about the invoicing system and the invoice fields. With the management software provider, about updates. And with the team, about client and service records.
The topic also matters to the firm's clients, and a clear explanation of the reform shows command of the subject.
At Jurisoft, we turn technical topics into clear content for clients.
Has your firm talked to its accountant about the new invoices yet?
