Overview
- Sheinbaum, who met Monday with SAT chief Antonio Martínez Dagnino, said Tuesday that reviews found some authorized nonprofits were used by companies to subcontract staff in violation of Mexico’s outsourcing ban.
- Officials described a scheme in which a company hired its own workers through a tax‑exempt charity, which cut labor and tax costs by misusing the group’s right to receive deductible donations.
- The SAT said some organizations also failed to prove required activities such as scientific research or had other compliance gaps, and each affected group can request a hearing to contest the decision.
- Donatarias autorizadas are nonprofits allowed to receive tax‑deductible gifts, and those cleared to take foreign funds must meet extra transparency rules set by the tax authority.
- Finance and tax data show the roster of authorized groups rose to 6,032 in 2023 and then fell to 5,883 in 2024, 5,650 in 2025 and 5,358 in 2026 as oversight tightened, while some commentators claim the enforcement is politically driven.
