ARCA Eases VAT Exclusion Process and Repeals RICOI Reporting to Cut Compliance Burdens

The agency says the changes streamline obligations by eliminating duplication to lower costs while preserving fiscal controls.

Overview

  • Through General Resolution 5774/2025, ARCA allows the administrative judge to disregard item h) of Article 4 of RG 2226 for taxpayers with subsidies or reduced VAT rates who lack an operative technical-balance refund, facilitating the exclusion certificate from retentions and perceptions.
  • The new VAT rule took effect on its October 21 publication in the Boletín Oficial and applies to procedures and disconformities still pending; once granted, the exclusion certificate is posted on ARCA’s website and is effective from that publication date.
  • General Resolution 5772/2025 abolishes the Complementary Information Regime for International Operations (RICOI), ending that filing requirement for domestic companies, associations and related entities, as well as trusts.
  • The RICOI repeal applies to information for fiscal years closed from May 1, 2025, with ARCA citing the Decree 353/2025 review to avoid duplicated reporting and reduce private-sector administrative costs.
  • ARCA states that fiscal oversight continues unchanged and notes it has eliminated ten information regimes in 2025 as part of a broader simplification effort.
