Uruguay Proposes Raising Tax-Free Limit for International Purchases to $800 in Budget Bill

  • The proposed 2025-2029 budget bill would raise the tax-free limit for international purchases to US$800 per calendar year.
  • This limit could be used in a single shipment or split across up to three shipments.
  • Value added tax (VAT) would apply to the invoice value or declared value of the merchandise.
  • Current rules allow up to three tax-free shipments per year, each not exceeding US$200.
  • Existing international trade agreements, such as with the US, would take precedence and maintain current regimes within their limits.
