At Tax Art, we recognize the importance of aligning with fiscal and legal regulations, especially in critical areas such as vulnerable activities governed by the Federal Law for the Prevention and Identification of Transactions with Illicit Proceeds (LFPIORPI).
On November 1, 2024, the Mexican Tax Administration Service (SAT) issued a significant announcement (060/2024), revealing that 9,287 guidance letters had been sent to obligated parties. This effort is part of the SAT’s strategy to enhance oversight, promote compliance, and prevent illicit activities.
The SAT aims to strengthen oversight and educate obligated parties to combat operations involving illicit funds. These letters serve as a warning about potential penalties for noncompliance and emphasize the importance of regularizing any previous omissions.
It is important to note that guidance letters are not official authority actions; instead, they are a proactive measure to encourage compliance before more rigorous audits are implemented. This move highlights Mexico’s commitment to international standards set by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), of which it is a member.
At Tax Art, our team of bilingual CPAs and legal experts is ready to help you interpret and proactively respond to these SAT notifications. We focus on ensuring our clients meet LFPIORPI requirements and mitigate legal risks.
