Statement
 
Hotels. Hospitality establishments.
 
Dear hotel managers:
 
We are taking this opportunity to inform you of a request from the Mixed Institute of Social Assistance (IMAS) to exempt its employees from paying tax on accommodation sales, as this was set out in Law 8653 “Financial Strengthening of the IMAS”, from which we cite below:

“IMAS is exempted from the payment of the tax on immovable property, income tax, fees and tolls, as well as the selective consumption tax for all importations and local purchases of goods and services it performs while carrying out its functions”.

The above is without prejudice to the verification mechanisms required for the correct implementation of this provision.
