As we have commented in previous articles, on August 23 2018, Chile's government presented a Tax Modernisation Bill, which aims to introduce a series of modifications to simplify the Chilean income tax system and incorporate new tax regulations.

Chile plans to overhaul its tax regime by amending corporate income tax provisions, capital gains tax rules, permanent establishment provisions and introduce a digital services tax. Sandra Benedetto and Gregorio Martínez of PwC Chile explain the changes.

The tax authority under a formal and strict application of such criterion has rejected expenses that were perfectly reasonable from a business perspective.
