Overview
- President Javier Milei and Chief of Staff Manuel Adorni rejected reports that the simplified Monotributo regime will be abolished and urged caution until official announcements are made.
- Multiple outlets trace the rumor to a technical article by Errepar that described moving about 3 million monotributistas to the general regime and redesigning deductions and thresholds.
- Economic officials are circulating concepts to lower the entry point for Income Tax and broaden the base with more progressive scales and higher deductible expenses, though no bill has been filed.
- Analyses cited in coverage warn that scrapping Monotributo would affect roughly 4.7 million people and could leave about 3 million without union-run health coverage if no transition safeguards exist.
- Debate over the regime’s future references an IMF staff call to harmonize Monotributo and ease transitions, while separate provincial tax moves, such as Córdoba’s Ingresos Brutos changes, underscore wider fiscal adjustments.
