As part of the measures taken by the national government to boost trade and production by simplifying procedures and reducing the administrative burden on taxpayers, the Federal Public Revenue Administration (AFIP) removed obstacles in the marketing chain of the yerba mate.

Through General Resolution 5555/2024, the organization led by Florencia Misrahi repealed a group of 1998 regulations that established the obligation to issue a series of documents in order to transport and industrialize this crop.

In this way, the AFIP adapted its regulations to the Decree of Necessity and Urgency (DNU) 70/2023, which modernized the National Institute of Yerba Mate with the aim of streamlining the necessary procedures for the activity and thus reducing unnecessary costs of the different links that make up that chain.

The general resolution published today in the Official Gazette eliminated the need to have the receipt called “Yerba mate route sheet”. Likewise, mills, dryers and/or warehouses will no longer have to register in the “Book of Movements and Stocks” the income, expenses and stocks of said products.

The agency reported that it is currently “reviewing the different records, receipts, obligations and information regimes implemented during previous administrations that could hinder the streamlining of processes, interfere with trade or increase costs.”

Another recent simplification measure was the Elimination of the Real Estate Transfer Tax (ITI)a tax that levied the purchase and sale of real estate. The repeal of this tax was implemented with the aim of “promoting real estate activity and facilitating access to home ownership”. In the same order, the AFIP also Eliminated the need to issue the Certificate of Transfer of Motor Vehicles (CETA)a document that had to be generated for each vehicle sale transaction. This measure aims to facilitate the purchase and sale of cars, reducing the time and costs associated with these transactions.

Administrative simplification also reached the agricultural sector, where the AFIP reduced from five to two the number of sworn statements that rural establishments must submit with the results of the harvest production. This measure, according to AFIP, seeks to “reduce the bureaucratic burden on rural producers and speed up the marketing processes for agricultural production.” This type of action is part of a broader effort by the government to promote agricultural production and improve the competitiveness of the sector in an increasingly demanding global market.
