Fiscalización 2026.

 En concordancia con el plan de fiscalización incluido en el paquete económico presentado por el ejecutivo para 2026, el Servicio de Administración Tributaria (SAT) ha comenzado ya con un intenso programa de revisiones a los contribuyentes, esto a través de medios electrónicos, requerimientos vía buzón tributario.

 La evidente necesidad de recaudación ha puesto en marcha el aparato fiscalizador del SAT y no solo en impuestos como el impuesto sobre la renta (ISR), también en temas de comercio exterior donde se ha encontrado un nicho para la recaudación de impuestos como el impuesto al valor agregado (IVA)

 Recordemos los principales ejes de fiscalización definidos para el SAT en el paquete económico 2026.

 

  • Mayor fiscalización electrónica: El SAT utilizará más herramientas digitales para detectar inconsistencias en declaraciones y contabilidad electrónica.

  • Supervisión en tiempo real: A partir de 2026, las plataformas digitales (streaming, transporte, entrega, etc.) deberán proporcionar acceso directo y en tiempo real al SAT a sus registros.

  • Intensificación de auditorías: Se planean alrededor de 16,200 auditorías en 2026, enfocadas en grandes contribuyentes, PyMEs y comercio exterior, con el objetivo de detectar irregularidades y evasión fiscal.

  • Restricción del CSD: La cancelación del Certificado de Sello Digital se consolidará como un riesgo operativo severo, ya que impide la facturación.

  • Nuevas obligaciones de reporte: Las empresas, en especial las PyMEs, podrían tener que demostrar el origen y destino de sus operaciones, especialmente si trabajan con terceros o en comercio internacional. 

 

Derivado de lo anterior, así como de la ola de revisiones que ya esta practicando el SAT, consideramos que es el momento oportuno para llevar a cabo revisiones preventivas de sus operaciones, ya que ello, en caso de tener que corregir algo, permitirá a los contribuyentes evitar el pago de multas y la imposición de sanciones, como la cancelación de sellos digitales o hasta un programa IMMEX o la Certificación IVA/IEPS.

Tax Audits 2026

 In accordance with the tax audit plan included in the economic package presented by the executive branch for 2026, the Tax Administration Service (SAT) has already begun an intensive program of taxpayer audits, using electronic means and requests via the tax mailbox.

 The evident need for collections has set the SAT's auditing apparatus in motion, not only in taxes such as income tax (ISR), but also in foreign trade matters, where a niche has been found for collecting taxes such as value-added tax (VAT).

 Let's recall the main areas of tax auditing defined for the SAT in the 2026 economic package.

 

  • Increased electronic auditing: The SAT (Mexican Tax Administration Service) will use more digital tools to detect inconsistencies in tax returns and electronic accounting.

  • Real-time monitoring: Starting in 2026, digital platforms (streaming, transportation, delivery, etc.) will be required to provide the SAT with direct, real-time access to their records.

  • Increased audits: Approximately 16,200 audits are planned for 2026, focusing on large taxpayers, SMEs, and foreign trade, with the goal of detecting irregularities and tax evasion.

  •  Restriction of the Digital Seal Certificate (CSD): Cancellation of the Digital Seal Certificate will become a significant operational risk, as it prevents invoicing.

  • New reporting obligations: Companies, especially SMEs, may be required to demonstrate the origin and destination of their transactions, particularly if they work with third parties or in international trade.

 

Based on the above and given the wave of audits already being conducted by the SAT, we believe this is the right moment to carry out preventative audits/reviews of your operations. This will allow taxpayers to avoid fines and penalties, such as the cancellation of digital tax stamps, IMMEX program registration, or VAT/IEPS certification, should any issues need to be addressed.
