This third-party system validates your financial status, meets your fiscal obligation, and ensures documents comply with Mexico’s authority requirements. Expect your payments to process:
- Within 20 days of receipt of paperwork on average
- Safely and securely through PACFE’s innovative portal
- Electronically in a centralized system

Whether you choose a check or electronic funds transfer, our standard agreement with contract carriers is payment within 20 days of receiving all appropriate paperwork for any given shipment. Want to get paid sooner? C.H. Robinson provides flexible payment options that offer you the fastest payments without hassle, commitment, or restrictions.
Step 1: Scan and upload paperwork
Using PACFE’s system, it’s simple to submit the necessary paperwork to get paid. Gather, scan, and upload these documents to start the payment process:
- Invoice in XML and PDF format
- Bill of lading, signed by the consignee for each stop
- Additional items as needed, such as proof of delivery, scale tickets, unloading receipts, etc.
Step 2: Confirm paperwork was received
Log into to PACFE to verify we have received all documents. You can also check payment statuses.
Note: Payments process according to the date you uploaded paperwork in PACFE.
Step 3: Receive payments
Once we receive all appropriate paperwork for a shipment, payments process within 20 days on average. In Mexico, you are paid based on a pre-established payment calendar with transfers scheduled twice monthly on average.
Note: You’ll be able to view payment history in Navisphere Carrier, but it may take up to 36 hours to update after a transaction.
