- Chile extended its 19% VAT to non-resident e-commerce sellers and digital platforms, covering digital services (since 2020) and cross-border sales of low-value goods (since 2024/2025).
- The de minimis exemption was removed; a new USD 500 threshold (including shipping and other bundled charges) applies to low-value goods sold online.
- Foreign sellers must register under a simplified regime with the Chilean Tax Authority (SII).
- Digital platforms are generally deemed responsible for collecting and remitting VAT on transactions they facilitate.
