How we can assist you

JA Del Río offers specialized services, supported by a team with ample experience and knowledgeable in the industry. We adapt ourselves to each company's specific needs, assuring the compliance of the pertinent regulations, and optimizing financial efficiency.

By having experts in the processes of the industry of alcoholic beverages, we not only offer integral solutions encompassing tax, accounting advisory services, financial planning and investment, but also we guide companies towards a regulatory environment that experiences constant changes (such as the special tax on production and services [IEPS, its initials in Spanish] or obligations in foreign trade matters), assisting them to maximize their profitability and minimize their risks.

 

Your company will be provided constant support in the following areas:

  • Registration or update of obligations in the Taxpayer Registry (RUT).
  • Analysis of the Cascade Tax applied to alcoholic beverages (selective consumption tax, specific tax, INDER tax, and VAT). 
  • Analysis of applicable rates.
  • Calculation and review of industry-specific taxes and payroll.
  • Compliance health check for companies in the alcoholic beverage sector.
