contents We study a framework in which fields are labeled by basis elements of a fusion algebra with non-invertible fusion rules. In particular, we consider the case where fields are labeled by conjugacy classes of a finite group rather than its irreducible representations. When the fusion rules possess a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry identified with charge conjugation, a CP-invariant system can be consistently defined together with parity transformation. Furthermore, it is found that combining group-based flavor symmetries underlying non-invertible selection rules with CP symmetry naturally leads to a generalized CP transformation. We also demonstrate the possibility of spontaneous CP violation in this framework and discuss its implications for Yukawa textures.
