The Homokey and the Homoclave of RFC

The Homokey is a set of the last three characters of the RFC key. To obtain your RFC with homoclave, you can either visit the SAT (Tax Administration Service) or use the online portal. Here’s a mini guide to help you understand what the homokey of the RFC is, its purpose, and how to get your RFC and CURP with homokey.

What is the Homoclave?

The homoclave is a vital component of the Federal Taxpayer Registry (RFC) key. It consists of three characters that make each RFC unique and unrepeatable. All individuals and companies conducting economic activities in Mexico must have an RFC with a homoclave to comply with tax regulations and work legally.

How the RFC is Composed

The RFC for individuals contains 13 characters derived from the name and date of birth, while the RFC for companies contains 12 characters. Each element in the RFC has a specific meaning:

RFC with Homoclave for Natural Persons

• First two letters: First letter of the paternal surname and the first vowel.
• A letter: Initial of the mother’s last name (use “X” if not available).
• A letter: Initial of the first name.
