The SAT rules out fiscal miscellany for 2023

“The SAT did not send a single proposal for changes, only the fees and rates that are updated for inflation,” added the head of the SAT.

Buenrostro explained that the decision was made in conjunction with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, given that the companies’ supply chains were reconfigured after the pandemic and they are seeking to establish themselves in Mexico.

“We were in a meeting with the President discussing what possibilities there were to make new changes, and we observed that the legal precisions, which are missing, because everything is perfectible, no longer generate as much impact for us, however, not making any changes in the miscellaneous could give greater certainty, that is why the international context, they already know it and they know that there will be no modifications to the miscellaneous, so what we can do is ensure that there are faster decision-making by the transnationals to invest,” said Buenrostro.

He specified that there are between 80 and 400 Asian companies interested in establishing themselves in the country, and that the law to regulate outsourcing is also contributing to the generation of formal jobs.

President López Obrador said that next year there will be no new taxes and announced that priority programs such as Welfare pensions will receive a 25% increase.

He explained that by 2023 the part to generate income through the fight against informality will be reinforced, specifically the large informal, which are the smugglers who enter with ships and tankers, “that is what the charter is for.”

“That is the informality or illegality that is going to be reviewed, we will continue working on that, not with changes in the Law, but rather in incorporating informality, in the medium term, if everything is sustainable, what we want is to incorporate a part of the large informality, which should also be large taxpayers, smuggling means billions of pesos,” said the head of the SAT.

If there will be no changes in the fiscal island, Buenrostro explained that if precisions are necessary in schemes such as the Simplified Trust Regime (Resico) they will be made through the publication of rules, as was happening last year.
