Definition of effective beneficiary: individual or entity not incorporated with the sole or main purpose of tax saving, receiving the amounts on its own behalf (not as an agent, administrator, attorney-in-fact, etc.) Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
8 Brazil Thin Cap Rules Guido Vinci Partner III Tributario Rio de Janeiro Campos Mello Advogados in cooperation with DLA Piper Limit the deductibility of interests paid: To foreign related party which holds equity interest in the Brazilian company and is not domiciled in tax haven: The amount of indebtedness verified upon accrual of the interests cannot exceed twice the value of equity held by the related party in the local entity. To foreign related party which does not hold equity interest in the Brazilian company and is not domiciled in tax haven: The amount of indebtedness verified upon accrual of the interests cannot exceed twice the value the Brazilian company s net worth. The sum of the overall indebtedness with foreign related parties verified upon accrual of the interests cannot exceed twice the sum of the total equity interest held by all related parties in the local entity. Exception made in case of indebtedness exclusively with foreign related parties with no equity interest, in which case, the sum of the indebtedness with all such related parties shall not exceed twice the value of the Brazilian company s net worth. To company domiciled in tax haven or with favored tax regime: the amount of indebtedness with residents of tax havens or with companies subject to favored tax regimes must not exceed 30% of the company s net worth.

9 Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico IETU Background Amparo Ruling Creditability Compliance and Enforcing Rules Mexican Tax Consolidation Ricardo Leon Santacruz Monterrey, Mexico May 2010
10 Mexico IETU Background Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico BACKGROUND Flat Tax or IETU entered in force on January 1, 2008 and replaced the Asset Tax. It was conceived as an alternative minimum tax. Key to IETU is its recognition as a creditable tax for foreign tax purposes in the international context. After its enactment, Asset Tax (a.k.a. IMPAC ) had to be revised to ensure its creditability. IMPAC was an alternative minimum tax levied at on the company or PE s net asset worth. During the tax lifetime the rate fluctuated between 2% and as low as 1.25%. Taxpayers calculated both Income Tax and IMPAC and paid the higher of the two. IMPAC could be carried forward and offset against income tax in future years with the ultimate effect of acting as advanced payment of Income Tax. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
11 Mexico IETU Background (continued) IETU was conceived as a direct tax with the following main attributes: (1) minimum exemptions; (2) low rate; (3) deductibility of expenses necessary to create income Methods Interaction between Income Tax and IETU Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Purpose of tax Income Tax Taxes net profit and it is levied on an accrual basis. IETU Taxes the return of investment on production factors and it is levied on a cash basis. Rate 30% for 2010 to 2012, 29% for 2013 & 28% for 2014 and thereafter 17.5%, but, as part of its phase in, the rate was reduced to 16.5% for 2008 and 17% for 2009 Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
12 Mexico IETU Background (continued) Interaction between Income Tax and IETU Income Tax IETU Taxable income Income from whatever source derived received in cash, kind, services or credit, inflationary gain-loss, and exchange rate gain-loss Income from the sale of goods or services and leasing or letting the use of assets of any kind assessed on a cash basis. Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Deductions Business expenses which are strictly indispensable to the development of the taxpayers business, gradual depreciation or amortization of investments, and COGS for inventories Business expenses, investments, and inventories all fully deductible upon payment thereof Nondeductible items Interest paid by independent or related parties, royalties paid by related parties, payroll (tax credit granted instead), labor benefits Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
13 Mexico IETU Background (continued) Interaction between Income Tax and IETU Income Tax IETU Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Annual calculation Taxable Income (-) Deductions (-) Mandatory profit sharing payments (-) NOLs BASE / PROFIT * Rate (30% for 2010) (-) Estimated monthly Income Tax payments INCOME TAX OF THE YEAR Taxable Income (-) Allowable deductions (-) Additional deductions (3rd Trimester 07) BASE * Rate (17.5% as of 2010) FLAT TAX DUE (-) Credits of deductions in excess of income (-) Credits for salaries and social security (-) Credits for attributes (-) Credits for inventories (-) Credit for 05, 06 and 07 qualifying NOL s (-) Income tax of the year FLAT TAX OF THE YEAR (-) Estimated monthly Flat Tax payments Balance payment or favorable balance Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
14 Mexico IETU Background (continued) Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Is IETU really an alternative minimum tax? There are structural differences between Income Tax and IETU (i.e. cash flow vs. accrual basis, different deductions, different rates). Taxpayers must assess their Income Tax and IETU liability. If Income Tax results higher then no problem, but if IETU results higher taxpayers will pay both (IETU in the portion that exceeds Income Tax). Usually IETU will result higher than Income Tax if a proper balance between these taxes (in lieu of their structural differences) is not achieved. For example: Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
15 Mexico IETU Background (continued) Is IETU really an alternative minimum tax? Income Tax IETU Taxable basis* Tax rate 30% 17.5% Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Tax due Final tax due * A difference in the taxable basis might occur: (1) if taxpayer deducted an item for Income Tax and not for IETU purposes (e.g. interest, royalties paid to related parties), (2) if taxpayer recognized as income a significant cash inflow for IETU purposes that had already been accrued for Income Tax purposes in another tax year, or (3) if taxpayer deducted payroll for Income Tax purposes that could not be credited for IETU purposes. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
16 Mexico IETU Background (continued) Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Is IETU really an alternative minimum tax? Unlike IMPAC, effectively paid IETU will not offset Income Tax in the forthcoming years. Profit that has paid IETU does not add up to the Net Profit Account meaning that if dividends are distributed out of this profit, additional Income Tax would also be paid on the dividend distribution. There is no tax consolidation for IETU purposes. Ultimate effect: IETU impacts as an additional tax rather than as an alternative minimum tax. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
17 Mexico IETU Amparo ruling Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Transitory provisions of IETU Law foresee that the tax authorities will review this tax by 2011 to conclude whether it should replace Income Tax or it should be repealed. RECENT AMPARO RULING ON IETU As a consequence of the severe distortions generated by IETU, several taxpayers filed an Amparo (constitutional injunction) as soon as it entered into force to fight the unconstitutionality of this tax. Given the importance of the matter, the Supreme Court of Justice ( SCJ ) ruled on the case. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
18 Mexico IETU Amparo ruling (continued) Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Besides denying all taxpayers arguments, the SCJ openly recognized that: IETU is not a new version of the Mexican Income Tax. IETU does not need to recognize the same deductions as the ones allowed under the Mexican Income Tax Law. Expenses such as salaries, interest and royalties paid to related parties do not play an important role in the calculation of IETU regardless of the fact that they do for Income Tax purposes. Tax base for IETU should not be identified as a profit in the traditional sense of the concept under income tax principles mainly because both taxes are different in substance. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
19 Mexico IETU Creditability Abroad Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Since IETU entered in force, Mexico managed to get its treaty partners to recognize it as Tax Covered under the relevant Double Tax Convention before renegotiation. Mexico has been renegotiating some of its Double Tax Conventions thereby achieving express recognition of IETU as a Tax Covered under the treaty. Double Tax Conventions entered into by Mexico after IETU entered in force already include IETU as a Tax Covered. The US is a different story! Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
20 Mexico IETU Creditability in the US Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Affected US taxpayers: (i) PEs in Mexico of US companies (e.g. branches); and (ii) US companies receiving dividends from Mexican tax resident companies. Notice (published on December 10, 2007): (i) further study was required to determine whether IETU will be deemed to be a creditable tax for purposes of Article 24(1) of the U.S.-Mexico Double Tax Treaty; and (ii) US taxpayers were allowed to assume the position of IETU creditability until the relevant study is concluded. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
21 Mexico IETU Creditability in the US (continued) Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Most probably, IRS will wait until 2011 (when Mexican tax authorities are supposed to review IETU according to the relevant transitory provision of IETU Law) to render a final decision. Tax Havens Recent SCJ s may ultimately affect the analysis of the IETU being undertaken by the IRS on the creditability of IETU: Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
22 Mexico IETU Creditability in the US (continued) US rule Net gain rule. Foreign tax predominantly similar to an income tax in the US sense, i.e. tax base is calculated by subtracting from gross proceeds the costs necessary to generate such proceeds SCJ position Tax base for IETU should not be identified as a profit in the traditional sense of the concept under income tax principles mainly because both taxes are different in substance. Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico In lieu of tax rule. Foreign tax imposed in substitution (not in addition) of Income Tax, e.g. withholding tax on US residents receiving Mexican sourced income By recognizing that expenses such as salaries, interest and royalties paid to related parties do not play an important role in the calculation of IETU, SCJ is indirectly accepting that IETU should not be creditable under the in lieu of tax rule. Under IETU s mechanic of calculation, denial of these deductions could lead to payment of IETU in addition to Income Tax. IETU does not work as an alternative minimum tax. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
23 Mexico Compliance & Enforcement Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico The Tax Administration Service has begun a very aggressive and carefully planned campaign to attach aggressive tax shelter structures: A number of tax firm s have been identified as developers and promoters of aggressive tax shelters; The shelters basically avoided-evaded tax withholdings on taxes payable on salaries and social securities quotas thereon. The structures essentially shifted the employees to partnership in cooperative structures, or the like, and the distributions to employees were tagged as social welfare benefits and alimony type payments, which were argued to be exempt. This saved employers the cost of social security quotas, employee profit sharing payments and the tax savings were split between the service provider, the employer and sometimes, the worker himself. Foreign trade enforcement Transfer pricing, tax withholdings, technical assistance/royalty payment re-characterization, head office pro-rata expense deduction challenge, etc. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
24 Mexico Compliance & Enforcement (continued) Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico The Tax Administration Service has also strengthened its audit capabilities and is focusing on: Transfer pricing Tax withholdings Technical assistance/royalty payment recharacterization Head office pro-rata expense deduction challenge Debt-push-down structures Cost of goods sold integration Thin-capitalization Foreign trade, origin and customs compliance Others Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
25 Mexico Tax Consolidation Regime Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico BENEFITS OF TAX CONSOLIDATION Individual Net Profit Account ( CUFIN ) balances are combined into a single consolidated CUFIN account; Tax-free flow of dividends not deriving from CUFIN between entities belonging to the consolidated group; Immediate application of NOL s generated by a controlled entity to the consolidated results, regardless of whether these NOL s have been amortized at the level of the controlled entity having generated them; Immediate application of losses derived individually from the transfer of shares. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
26 Mexico Tax Consolidation Regime Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico Until 2009, benefits of consolidation could virtually last forever provided that none of the events foreseen under law for a deconsolidation occur, e.g. among others, loss at the level of a controlled entity of the right to amortize its NOLs (that flowed into the consolidated results) having elapsed the legal term to do so TAX AMENDMENT Benefits of the tax consolidation regime were limited to a 5-year term. The controlling entity is obliged to calculate and pay income tax after this term has elapsed regardless of whether an event for deconsolidation occurs or not. Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
27 Mexico Tax Consolidation Regime (continued) Effects of the amendments cover 1999 to 2009 tax years. Retroactivity - obligation of calculating and paying income with respect to deferred taxes from prior years (when these new rules were not even in force). Calendar of payments: Deferred tax from Ricardo Leon Santacruz Sanchez-DeVanny Eseverri, SC Mexico % 25 % 05 0% 25 % 20% 15% 15% 25% 20% 15% 15% 06 0% 0% 25% 25% 20% 15% 15% 07 0% 0% 0% 25% 25% 20% 15% 15% 08 0% 0% 0% 0% 25% 25% 20% 15% 15% 09 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 25% 25% 20% 15% 15% 10 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 0% 25% 25% 20% 15% 15% Foreign Tax Update - Latin America May 27,
