AFIP taxes: those who sell on platforms such as Mercado Libre will pay 8% VAT

2023-01-24T17:56:24.616Z


It will be from February 1 and will affect a specific group. What is the measure about?


Through a General Resolution 5319/2023 published in the Official Gazette,

the AFIP established the collection of a special VAT

for those who sell

through virtual platforms such as Mercado Libre.

But it won't affect everyone, just a particular group.

The measure targets merchants who use digital platforms to sell their products, and who are not listed as registered managers.

If these taxpayers exceed $200,000 in monthly billing, they must pay 8% VAT as a commission.

It will affect the "not categorized", which includes monotributistas and exempt.

The platforms are going to give them a perception of 8%.

In this way, the agency tries to go after merchants who operate in the dark through ecommerce platforms.

In other words, the body led by Carlos Castagneto will go after those who

do not pay VAT

, such as taxpayers of the simplified regime.

The measure aims to determine if the person regularly conducts business operations above $200,000 per month, or $400,000 in four months.

"The activity linked to electronic commerce has experienced exponential growth in recent years

, highlighting the incorporation of new operators that act as intermediaries in the arrangement of commercial transactions through 'digital platforms' of their ownership", details the regulation.

And in this sense, it clarifies that "having detected -in this framework-

new evasion modalities

, it is necessary to make modifications to the regime in order to

intensify the controls

on the operations carried out through portals or web applications, adapting the aliquots that discourage such disvaluable behaviors , incorporating new perception agents and expanding the operations achieved".

For their part, registered managers 

will continue to pay 1% if they are in order with the AFIP

;

3% if they present

delays

and 5% for those who have an invalid

or

unconstituted electronic tax address .

Registered managers who for some reason have a limited CUIT will pay 7%;

They will pay the same percentage as those who are

obliged to issue class "M" invoices

and

monotributistas who exceed the parameters set forth

in the regime, among others.

One by one, the companies that will act as perception agents

  • agrofy


  • To the world

  • my dicks

These companies are going to have to access the AFIP's "WebService" service and

consult the status of their client's CUIT

, to determine

what type of perception they should make.
