SAT Reiterates 2025 Personal Deduction Rules for Mexico’s Annual Tax Return

The guidance seeks to cut rejected claims by emphasizing compliant invoices, traceable payments, strict caps and organized records.

Overview

  • Eligible expenses include medical and hospital care, funerary costs, donations, major medical insurance premiums, tuition and school transport, mortgage interest and retirement savings contributions.
  • Each deductible expense must have a CFDI with the taxpayer’s RFC correctly recorded and a concept that matches the service or product purchased.
  • Payments must be made by bank transfer, credit or debit card, or nominative check in the name of the person claiming the deduction, as cash is not accepted.
  • Total personal deductions are limited to the lesser of five annual UMAs or 15% of total income, including exempt income.
  • Individuals who are or have been under the Régimen Simplificado de Confianza are not allowed to claim personal deductions, and the SAT urges requesting invoices monthly and keeping orderly records.
