Take note! The SAT goes on vacation

Will there be no appointments for procedures and services?

In these periods and days the corresponding legal terms and terms will not be computed in the acts, this means that the days stop to carry out some procedure, for example, to make an appointment you can request it, but the requirement remains in a type of tray entrance, and is attended to when the staff returns from vacation, explained in an interview José Luis Gallegos Barraza, president of the Fiscal Commission of the Mexican Institute of Public Accountants (IMCP).

or there will be attention for procedures in the offices, while some procedures can be done online.

There will be attention from personnel on duty in the offices only for taxpayers with an appointment or in cases of emergency. “Theoretically, if a taxpayer cannot use their digital seal to make invoices, there must be a guard assigned by the SAT to deal with sensitive cases,” explained the IMCP member.

You should also consider these non-business days for the resolution of procedures with the SAT, remember that the count of days for deadlines that the authority gives you is in business days.

“It is very important to take into account which procedures have well-established terms, they are measured in days, these vacation days are non-working days for legal purposes, all the time that vacations last do not count for the authority,” Gallegos said.

For example, if you were granted a period of 20 business days for a return, but these 10 business days are not counted.

There are other procedures and services that can be used, for example, and the platform for issuing invoices is very clear, because companies do not stop their production when the SAT goes on vacation, added the executive.

The state and municipal authorities may consider the non-working days indicated in this rule, provided that they make them known with that character in their organ or official means of dissemination, in accordance with the legal and administrative provisions that govern them, refers to the Fiscal Miscellaneous Resolution .
