Stamp tax

Requirement

In Chile, companies must pay a stamp tax on each draft, bill of exchange, promissory note, or any document that involves loans, and especially borrowings and foreign ones. The rate of the stamp tax depends on the period of the loan and is calculated on one of these amounts:

  • The amount that is expressed in the document
  • The amount of borrowed money

M3 solution

In ‘Fiscal Stamps. Open Values’ (GLCL08), you can configure the monthly tax percentage and tax limit percentage per payment method and per accounting date. When users generate reports from 'AR Bills of Exchange. Report Fisc Stamps' (GLCL17), this configuration is used to determine the tax values to be used for tax calculation per transaction, depending on the transaction payment method and the invoice date.
