- Under the CREATE MORE law, Registered Business Enterprises (RBEs) are categorized into Registered Export Enterprises (REEs), High Value Domestic Market Enterprises (HVDMEs), and Domestic Market Enterprises (DMEs). REEs and HVDMEs receive both VAT and duty-free importation incentives, while DMEs only receive duty-free importation privileges. The law has shifted from a blanket application of incentives to a transactional, performance-based approach. All RBEs can sell to the domestic market, but these sales are subject to VAT. For business-to-business transactions, the buyer is now responsible for remitting VAT, with specific compliance requirements based on the nature of the transaction and the seller’s registration status.
