Contingency Fiscal Document

When the SEFAZ tax authority web services connection fails, you can generate the fiscal document in the contingency mode so that the process of sending the goods to the destination is not interrupted.

Here are the contingency types available for use:

  • Precedent event of issuance provided in contingency (EPEC) Auxiliary document security form (FS-DA)
  • SEFAZ virtual contingency site (SVC)

You can only request a contingency fiscal document for these fiscal document statuses:

  • Upload failed: The tax authority service is unavailable. The request for fiscal document approval was not processed by the tax authority.
  • Pending Return: The request for the fiscal document approval is pending the tax authority. The tax authority may or may not have processed the request.
    Note: You must identify the differences between these two fiscal document statuses, as they impact how the contingency fiscal document is generated and how the return of original request for fiscal document approval is handled.
