CNFP, Grande Oriente de México Sign Legal-Certainty Pact in Cancún
The agreement adds SAT e-signature and public UUID verification to the civil association's records.
The Colegio Nacional de Fedatarios Públicos (CNFP) signed a cooperation agreement on July 14 with the civil association Grande Oriente de México (GODM), aimed at strengthening the legal certainty of that organization's documentation and deepening institutional cooperation between the two groups, according to Communiqué 02/2026 released by the Colegio itself.
The agreement was signed in Cancún, Quintana Roo, by CNFP president Carlos Rodolfo Yáñez Peralta, with the assistance of the organization's secretary general, Roberto López Vázquez.
Per the communiqué, the pact incorporates three technological tools into GODM's documents: advanced electronic signature using the SAT's e.firma, public verification by UUID code, and traceability mechanisms that guarantee verifiable integrity and a certified date.
"Public trust is a social good. When an institution decides to subject its documentation to verifiability standards, it benefits, and so does whoever relies on it," Yáñez Peralta said in the official statement.
What it means for people handling documents in Cancún
For anyone dealing with Grande Oriente de México, the agreement means its institutional documents can be authenticated online through a unique identifier (UUID), similar to how notarial deeds and certifications already registered with the CNFP operate. In practice, anyone who receives a document from the association bearing a UUID folio will be able to confirm its authenticity without relying solely on physical seals or handwritten signatures, reducing the risk of forgery.
Using the SAT's e.firma — the same certificate taxpayers and notaries use for tax and notarial procedures — adds a layer of digital identity verified by a federal authority, while traceability and the certified date make it possible to establish precisely when a document was created and whether it was altered afterward.
How to verify a CNFP-backed document
Anyone who receives a document bearing a CNFP seal or folio can confirm its validity through the Colegio's public verifier, available on its official portal, fedatariospublicos.org.mx. For questions about this specific agreement, the CNFP's Cancún office can be reached at 998-209-8023.
The agreement adds to a series of pacts the Colegio has signed with other organizations and institutions across Quintana Roo to extend document-verification tools beyond strictly notarial matters.
