The 16% general rate has applied nationwide since 1 Jan 2014, when the reduced border rate (former Artículo 2o.) was repealed (DOF 11-12-2013). A 0% rate applies to specific goods/activities (basic foods, medicines, exports) under Artículo 2o.-A. The widely cited '8% border rate' is NOT a statutory IVA rate: it is a fiscal stimulus (crédito fiscal equal to 50% of the tax, giving an 8% effective rate) for the northern and southern border regions, granted by presidential decree and conditional on registration in the SAT padrón. That decree was extended through 31 Dec 2026 (Decreto publicado en el DOF 31-12-2025); re-verify near year-end when it is due for renewal.
