Several tax hikes are coming for Jalisco residents in 2022

Both at the federal, state, and municipal levels, 2022 appears with increases in several obligations, including property taxes, vehicles registrations, and other tax obligations

A few days after the end of 2021, next year will be accompanied by increases in various obligations of citizens, mainly in terms of taxes. These levies are from the three levels of government.

In some of the scenarios, the increases will be higher than the inflation registered during this year.

Federal government

In federal matters, the Special Tax on Production and Services (IEPS) will have an increase of 7.36% compared to the 3.3% increase that was applied in 2021.

This will directly impact the prices of soft drinks, cigarettes, and gasoline after the update of the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (SHCP).

As published in the Official Gazette of the Federation, the quota for flavored drinks will be 1.39 pesos per liter, against 1.30 pesos that were applied in 2021.

Per cigar applicable to worked tobaccos will be 0.54 pesos per unit compared to 0.51 pesos in 2021; while the IEPS for gasoline type Magna will go from 5.1 to 5.49 pesos per liter; for Premium it will rise from 4.31 to 4.63 pesos per liter and for diesel, it will be 6.03 pesos.

In particular, the increase in fuels will also cause an escalation in product costs. For 2021 an inflation of 4.5% was estimated and ended at 7.3%. Banco de México’s estimate for 2022 is originally set at 4%.

It should be noted that within the Tax Miscellany of 2022, the Tax Administration System (SAT) also contemplates the application of more severe sanctions to those who evade their tax responsibilities in time, in addition to those who apply fraudulent practices for tax evasion.

State taxes

In the 2022 Income Law, there are tax increases especially in vehicle procedures, rights, and also the controversial increase in Payroll Tax that will rise a percentage for next year. In particular, this tax will be applied to those who have registered workers, that is, around 130 thousand economic units in the entity.

These are some of the increases for 2022:

• The vehicle registratio (cars and trucks) will go from 688 pesos to 711.

Municipal taxes

In general, the 125 municipalities of Jalisco report increases in their income laws that are around 5% in taxes, fees, and fines. Only 35 municipalities did not present a proposal for property increases.

Tlaquepaque does not propose an increase in the property tax, one of the main sources of income for the municipalities. Other municipalities that will not increase the property tax are Juanacatlán; Acatlán de Juárez; Atotonilco el Alto; Chapala; Jocotepec; among others.

In the case of Guadalajara, Zapopan, Puerto Vallarta, Tequila, and El Salto; they included progressive property rate schemes. In 15 municipalities, the adjustments to the cadastral tables rose more than 15%, but none of those located in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area.

In the same way, the municipalities that are part of the Intermunicipal System of Potable Water and Sewerage Services report a general increase of 6.8% in water rates, however, this may increase from the consumption generated per cubic meter.
