Ø  Among the benefits for the automotive industry, the notice that companies or vehicle manufacturers present to the General Administration of Large Taxpayers to carry out the destruction of obsolete, damaged or useless merchandise was repealed. Likewise, the rule on withholding VAT on leases to foreigners was eliminated. (Rule 4.5.31)

Ø  Companies with a canceled IMMEX program will now be able to submit a notice to extend the period granted by the Ministry of Economy to change the regime or return temporarily imported goods abroad to the ACAJACE to obtain a one-time extension of six months, counted at as of the expiration of the period granted by said Secretariat. (Rule 4.3.6)
