Overview
- ARCA applied a 14.29% increase to monotributo payments in March 2026, a change that affects more than five million small taxpayers nationwide.
- The monotributo, a simplified tax and social‑security regime for freelancers and microbusinesses, now has updated scales across all 11 categories from A to K.
- Key figures published by ARCA include a Category A annual cap of about $11.75 million and a monthly services fee near $45,300, with higher thresholds and payments set for each bracket.
- Contributors who exceed the new caps may need to move to a higher category or leave the simplified system and enter the General Regime with different tax rules.
- ARCA set a mandatory recategorization for August 2026 and the next automatic scale update for September, and it warned taxpayers to verify notices on official channels due to phishing scams.
