Reduced income tax rate effective due to Mexico repatriation program

February 2, 2017 / 1 min read

The Mexican government included a new repatriation program in its presidential decree issued on January 18, 2017.

The program reflects Mexico’s efforts to encourage investment in certain strategic areas within Mexico and to incentivize Mexican companies to repatriate their liquid assets.  While not an all-inclusive list, a summary of the repatriation program is as follows:

Funds repatriated to Mexico must be reinvested in specific areas and for investment specified within the decree (i.e. acquisition of fixed assets, land, or buildings in Mexico, repayment of loans with Mexican financial institutions, or investment in research and development in Mexico).
