Mexican Incentives

  • All film/video productions shot in Mexico and whose primary exploitation will be done outside Mexico are considered an “export product” and will be exempt from Value Added Tax (VAT). All your expenses for a 0% VAT have to be billed by one company, and that company needs an authorization from the IRS (SAT) prior to invoicing the project.
  • Mexico offers tax incentives for co-productions of feature films. Visiting productions are eligible for a 16% VAT refund.Some cities and states also offer their own incentives and discounts for films shot locally.
