The change

Ato Técnico Conjunto RFB/SUARA/CGIBS/Diretoria-Executiva nº 5 of 22 September 2026 (published on the CGIBS site on 24 September 2026) jointly approves the technical documentation for the CBS/IBS Split Payment Public Platform: Operations Manual v1.0.1, Integration Manual v1.1.1, openAPI document v1.1.1, Time Manual v1.0.1, Network Manual v1.0.1 and Security Manual v1.0.0. It also ratifies the earlier draft Operations Manual v1.0.0 and Time Manual v1.0.0, and takes effect on publication in the Diário Oficial da União and on the CGIBS site.

What changed in detail

Ato Técnico Conjunto RFB/SUARA/CGIBS/Diretoria-Executiva nº 5, dated 22 September 2026 and published on the CGIBS site on 24 September 2026, jointly approves the technical documentation for the CBS/IBS Split Payment Public Platform: Operations Manual v1.0.1, Integration Manual v1.1.1, openAPI document v1.1.1, Time Manual v1.0.1, Network Manual v1.0.1 and Security Manual v1.0.0.

It also ratifies the earlier draft Operations Manual v1.0.0 and Time Manual v1.0.0. The act takes effect on publication in the Diário Oficial da União and on the CGIBS site.

What it means

These are the specifications integrators build against, so teams working on split-payment connections should work from the v1.0.1 and v1.1.1 manuals and the openAPI document rather than the earlier drafts.
