Last Friday, a new law was enacted. Below are the main points related to the Sales and Use Tax (IVU). Please do not hesitate to contact us with questions.
- As of July 1st, 2015, transactions currently subject to the 7% IVU will be subject to a 11.5% Commonwealth (10.5%) and municipal (1%) IVU. This will be in effect until March 31, 2016.
- Effective for periods commencing after June 30, 2015, merchants with a Re-seller Certificate may claim 100% credits for IVU paid on their inventory against IVU collected on their sales. The 75% limitation currently in place is eliminated.
- Starting October 1st, 2015 and until March 31st, 2016:
1. Business to business services that are currently taxable will be subject to an 11.5% IVU.
2. Business to business services and designated professional services (e.g., certified accountants, lawyers, engineers) that were previously exempt from IVU will be subject to a Commonwealth IVU of 4%. No municipal IVU will apply to services subject to the 4%.
- In the case of services rendered by a non-resident, the recipient in Puerto Rico of the service will be the party responsible for remitting the IVU to the Treasury Department.
- Transactions occurring after March 31, 2016, will be subject to a new VAT (IVA) of 10.5% plus a 1% municipal IVU.
