Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ![ParseForge Banner](https://github.com/ParseForge/apify-assets/blob/ad35ccc13ddd068b9d6cba33f323962e39aed5b2/banner.jpg?raw=true) ## ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ Mexico RFC Validator > ๐Ÿš€ **Validate Mexican RFC taxpayer identifiers in bulk.** Format checks, date validation, and homoclave checksum for persona fisica and persona moral RFCs. CSV, Excel, JSON, XML. > ๐Ÿ•’ **Last updated:** 2026-05-26 ยท **๐Ÿ“Š 10 fields** per record ยท **Unlimited bulk RFC validation** ยท **Persona fisica (13-digit) and persona moral (12-digit)** The Mexico RFC Validator runs a structural validation of Mexican Registro Federal de Contribuyentes (RFC) tax identifiers against the official SAT format specification. Each input RFC is checked for format, embedded date validity, and homoclave checksum using the SAT modulo-11 algorithm. Both 13-digit persona fisica RFCs and 12-digit persona moral RFCs are supported. The scraper is offline and deterministic - no SAT account or network call is required. This makes it ideal for high-volume KYC pre-screening before hitting the rate-limited SAT verification page. **Target Audience / Use Cases** | Who | Why | |---|---| | KYC/compliance teams | Pre-validate Mexican counterparty RFCs in bulk | | Accounting and ERP integrations | Validate RFCs before submitting CFDIs | | Lead generation teams | Clean RFC fields in Mexican prospect lists | | Sales operations | De-dupe and validate Mexican customer records | | Developers | Add Mexican tax ID validation to your app | | Auditors | Sanity-check large lists of RFC values | --- ### ๐Ÿ“‹ What the Mexico RFC Validator does - Validates RFC format for persona fisica (13 chars) and persona moral (12 chars) - Validates embedded birth/incorporation date - Computes the SAT homoclave checksum and verifies the last character - Returns a single isValid flag plus per-check details - Handles bulk lists of any size - Exports to CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML > ๐Ÿ’ก **Why it matters:** Mexican CFDI invoicing requires valid RFCs. Pre-validating RFCs in bulk saves time and prevents downstream invoice rejections from SAT. --- ### ๐ŸŽฌ Full Demo _๐Ÿšง Coming soon_ --- ### โš™๏ธ Input

Use this scraper to flag invalid entries before importing into your CRM. #### KYC Onboarding For Mexican customer onboarding, validate the RFC client-submitted RFC structurally before sending to SAT or ID verification providers. #### ERP Data Migration When migrating Mexican customer records between systems, validate RFCs to catch corrupted or truncated values. *** ### ๐Ÿ”Œ Automating Mexico RFC Validator Connect this actor to your workflow with no-code tools: - **Make (Integromat)** - send new records to Google Sheets, Airtable, or Slack - **Zapier** - automate alerts when new records are found - **n8n** - build pipelines that run on a schedule and push to your warehouse - **Webhooks** - get notified when a run completes via Apify webhooks *** ### ๐ŸŒŸ Beyond business use cases #### Independent Researchers Developers can integrate this validator into Mexican fintech apps for client onboarding. #### Journalism and Investigations Researchers studying Mexican tax compliance can validate large datasets of RFC values. #### Non-Profit and Policy Research Educators teaching Mexican tax law can use the validator to demonstrate RFC structure. #### Education Compliance officers can audit historical RFC fields in archived databases. *** ### ๐Ÿค– Ask an AI assistant about this scraper You can ask your AI assistant questions like: - "How do I validate a Mexican RFC?" - "What is the difference between persona fisica and persona moral RFC?" - "How does the SAT RFC checksum work?" - "How do I bulk-check thousands of RFCs?" The answers will reference this actor and the SAT RFC format specification. *** ### โ“ Frequently Asked Questions **What is an RFC?** Registro Federal de Contribuyentes - the Mexican tax identifier issued by SAT. **What is the difference between persona fisica and persona moral RFC?** Persona fisica = individual (13 chars). Persona moral = company (12 chars). **Does this verify the RFC exists in SAT?** No. It only validates the structure. For live verification, use SATs official tool. **What is the homoclave?** The last 3 characters of the RFC. Calculated by SAT using a modulo-11 algorithm on the rest of the RFC. **Can I validate RFCs in bulk?** Yes. Pass any number of RFCs in the rfcList input. **How fast is the validator?** Thousands of RFCs per second. **Does it work offline?** Yes. No network call is made to SAT. **Are special characters supported?** RFCs use A-Z, 0-9, ร‘, and & only. **How many records per run?** Free: 10. Paid: up to 1,000,000. **Can I export to Excel?** Yes. **Why might a valid RFC return checksumValid=false?** SATs checksum uses a non-standard character table. Make sure the RFC is uppercase and contains no extra characters. *** ### ๐Ÿ”Œ Integrate with any app Connect your dataset to 1,500+ apps via Apify integrations: **Analytics:** Google Sheets, Airtable, Microsoft Excel, Tableau, Power BI **Databases:** PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, BigQuery, Snowflake **Communication:** Slack, Microsoft Teams, email notifications **Storage:** Google Drive, Dropbox, Amazon S3, Azure Blob **Automation:** Make, Zapier, n8n, Pipedream *** ### ๐Ÿ”— Recommended Actors | Actor | What it does | |---|---| | [Argentina AFIP Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge/argentina-afip-scraper) | Argentine CUIT lookups | | [France SIRENE Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge/france-sirene-scraper) | French company registry | | [Peru SUNAT RUC Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge/peru-sunat-ruc-scraper) | Peruvian RUC validation | > ๐Ÿ’ก **Pro Tip:** Browse the complete [ParseForge collection](https://apify.com/parseforge) for more government data, business intelligence, and research scrapers. *** **Disclaimer:** This tool implements the public SAT RFC structural format.
