Over the past two years, the Mexican government has enacted far-reaching changes to the Mexican income tax, value-added tax, and Federal Tax Code. While previous Mexican government tax reform efforts were aimed at highly digitalized businesses, the most recent round of tax reform went beyond prior efforts to change the entire international Mexican tax system.
Today, Mexico’s tax system is one of the most complex in the world. That’s why accounting expert Juan Alberto Morales recommends startups develop an in-depth understanding of Mexico’s tax system before doing business in the country.
“If you’re not related to the tax system, it’s difficult to understand a new one because it has a lot of regulations and rules that make it challenging,” Morales says.
Morales is a Bilingual International Public Accountant who specializes in tax consulting, corporate tax compliance, automation of tax calculation, and risk assessment of fiscal function processes. He is a tax director at JA Del Río, an accounting firm focused on helping companies do business in Latin America. On March 24, Morales will be hosting a webinar for Founders Network members where he’ll demystify Mexico tax compliance.
At his webinar, Morales will also cover:
