The Government of the province of Buenos Aires led by Axel Kicillof ratified that on April 1
the tax on digital services will be reactivated
, for which
an additional 2%
will have to be
paid for Netflix, Spotify
and other streaming platforms.
This is the canon corresponding to Gross Income that is applied to services provided from outside the country and that
had been suspended
in January of last year.
Now, the head of the Revenue Agency of the Province of Buenos Aires (ARBA), Cristian Girard, ratified that the tax will be charged again because it
is in force in the Federal Capital
.
"The City of Buenos Aires had it in force, so we decided to do it simultaneously,
so that there is no inequality,
" said the head of ARBA in statements to the press.
The 2% recharge is added to those already charged by Netflix and the rest of those services, such as 21% VAT, 8% PAIS tax, 35% of perception on account of Profits and 1, 2% stamp tax.
"It is
also to
give
equal treatment
to companies located in Argentina, because the clients of these companies do pay IIBB, but those that provide services from abroad do not.
We do not want to create a disincentive to national production
. On the contrary, we want to generate incentives to produce locally, "Girard justified.
