“Santiago is one of the provinces with the lowest tax burden in the entire country, as confirmed by Argentina’s leading digital wallet”
This is indicated by the report conducted by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC)...
The Vice Governor of the Province, Dr. Carlos Silva Neder, stated that “Santiago del Estero is one of the provinces with the lowest tax burden in the entire country, and this is confirmed by Argentina’s leading digital wallet.”
In this regard, he referred to a statement issued by the companies Mercado Libre and Mercado Pago, which announced that “they will reduce selling fees in provinces where the Gross Income Tax is lower than the national average. Santiago del Estero is among these provinces, thanks to policies implemented by the Provincial Government led by Dr. Gerardo Zamora.”
“According to explanations provided by Mercado Libre and Mercado Pago, selling fees were previously the same nationwide, but increasingly significant differences in Gross Income Tax rates between provinces end up penalizing those who work and shop in provinces with lower tax burdens—such as ours, which is yet another achievement of Governor Gerardo Zamora,” he added.
He continued: “Starting on July 8, selling fees will be reduced in our province, along with Corrientes, Río Negro, Santa Cruz, and Formosa, where Gross Income Tax is lower compared to others.”
The statement also noted that, conversely, fees will increase for users operating in Córdoba, Santa Fe, and Jujuy, where the tax is higher than the national average, while in the rest of the provinces fees will remain unchanged for now.
