Tax Challenges We Solve for Expats
Expats living in Cozumel and the Riviera Maya face unique tax situations that require specialized expertise:
- Confusion about Mexican tax obligations: Many expats don't realize they need to file Mexican tax returns even if they already file in the US or Canada. We clarify your obligations and ensure full compliance.
- Double taxation concerns: Without proper planning, you could pay taxes on the same income in both countries. We apply the Mexico-US Tax Treaty to eliminate or reduce double taxation.
- Difficulty getting RFC and e.firma: The SAT registration process for foreigners can be confusing. We handle the entire process and ensure you're set up in the correct tax regime.
- Property and rental income complications: Whether you own property through a fideicomiso or corporation, rental income must be declared correctly to avoid SAT penalties.
- Language barrier with Mexican tax authorities: Dealing with the SAT in Spanish can be challenging. We serve as your bilingual representative.
