MEXICO CITY, Jan 3 (Reuters) – A spokesperson of Mexico’s finance ministry (Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público: SHCP ), said on Friday Jan. 3rd, that digital platforms have until July 1 to start complying with new tax obligations, part of the government’s strategy to increase the overall tax take.
The measures will “facilitate compliance with existing taxes, through a mechanism in which the platforms contribute to the tax authority by withholding taxes, and do not contemplate new taxes or an increase in current tax rates,” the ministry said.
