Sheinbaum Pledges Offensive Against Corruption and Phantom Invoicing Companies

Despite the positive results, President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that for fiscal year 2026, the strategy will focus on closing persistent tax evasion gaps. The president indicated that the tax authority will direct its efforts towards companies that simulate operations through the buying and selling of invoices to evade VAT, ISR (Income Tax), and IEPS (Special Tax on Production and Services) payments. “Where will the SAT direct its efforts? Towards phantom invoicing companies. There are still people who buy invoices or dedicate themselves to creating invoices through companies that produce nothing in reality, but produce invoices. Not paying taxes is a form of corruption,” asserted the head of the Executive Branch. The tax auditing strategy for this year will also include specific audits of taxpayers who present unjustified recurrent fiscal losses, simulate illegal deductions, or obtain undeclared income. Sheinbaum Pardo emphasized that these surplus resources have enabled the funding of welfare programs, public infrastructure, healthcare, and education, thus fiscal discipline will remain a cornerstone of the financial administration.
