How to calculate IVA

To add IVA: amount × 1.16. To remove or break out IVA: amount ÷ 1.16.

The general IVA rate is 16% under article 1 of the VAT Law. An 8% border stimulus exists for qualifying taxpayers through 31 December 2026. Some goods and services are taxed at 0% or are exempt.

Formula

Gross = net × (1 + rate). Net = gross ÷ (1 + rate).

Worked example

A net price of MXN 1,000 needs the general IVA added.

FAQ

Is the rate still 16% in 2026?

When is 8% allowed?

Only as a border-region stimulus for registered taxpayers. It is not the default rate.
