Chile Launches Simplified Tax Registry for Subsistence Workers with Full VAT and Income Tax Exemptions

  • Chile’s tax authority (SII) is launching a simplified registry for small-scale subsistence workers (artisans, fishermen, street vendors, etc.) starting 1 January 2026.
  • Registered individuals will receive full exemptions from VAT and income taxes, and will not need to issue receipts, keep accounting records, or file tax returns.
  • Eligibility requires selling only to final consumers and earning less than 5 Monthly Tax Units (UTM) per month on average over the previous six months.
  • Registration is primarily online, with a transition period until 30 June 2026 for existing operators to join without penalties.
  • The new certificate replaces traditional business registration and enables access to electronic payment systems; enforcement by government and payment providers starts 1 July 2026.
