Majority of Argentine Provinces Shun Ticket Tax Transparency Law One Year On

Civil society group Lógica is citing constitutional mandates to compel provinces to comply with consumer tax display rules

Overview

  • Only Chubut has officially joined Law 27.743, making it the sole jurisdiction to itemize both national and local taxes on purchase receipts.
  • Entre Ríos, Mendoza, Córdoba and the City of Buenos Aires have launched legislative or administrative procedures to extend the regime to provincial and municipal levies.
  • Nineteen provinces have ignored three formal letters from Lógica that invoked Article 42’s guarantee of truthful consumer information.
  • Lógica highlights President Javier Milei’s endorsement of the transparency regime and ARCA’s regulation of national taxes to strengthen its appeal.
  • A Poliarquía survey shows 94% of Argentines support displaying taxes on tickets, underscoring widespread public demand for fiscal clarity.
