Buenos Aires Province Unveils 2026 Tax Bill Proposing Vehicle Tax Cuts and Property Tax Stability

The package now awaits legislative debate, with officials casting it as targeted relief for households and SMEs with stronger enforcement on top taxpayers.

Overview

  • ARBA chief Cristian Girard presented the Budget, 2026 Tax Bill and a debt request to provincial lawmakers alongside Economy Minister Pablo López on November 4.
  • The vehicle tax is restructured from 15 to 5 valuation bands with rates from 1% to 4.5%, and officials say three in four owners will pay less than under 2024 and most will pay below inflation.
  • Urban and rural property tax tables and rates remain unchanged, additional installments are scrapped, and officials say the real burden falls for all parcels.
  • No Ingresos Brutos rate increases are proposed, thresholds are updated 40% for reduced and increased bands, and officials say 46,000 SMEs benefit as 1.4 million simplified filers keep a lower effective rate and stay outside collection regimes.
  • The plan emphasizes tighter oversight of high-capacity activities, drops an extraordinary advance for large taxpayers, removes some financial investor exemptions, keeps Stamp Tax rates unchanged, and seeks to correct bracket jumps caused by higher car prices.
