Mexican municipal tax incentive programs

Entities: Vivienda para el Bienestar · Instituto del Fondo Nacional de la Vivienda para los Trabajadores (Infonavit) · Municipality of Chihuahua

Overview

Throughout July 2026 Mexican municipalities expanded tax‑incentive measures to improve compliance and fund local projects. Municipalities such as Ayala (Morelos), Morelia (Michoacán), Saltillo, Ciudad Juárez, Hermosillo and several towns in Chihuahua introduced property‑tax discounts, fee reductions and mobile treasury desks offering on‑site assistance and flexible payment options. Chihuahua’s “Regularízate” program waives recargos and execution costs for overdue pavement‑work fees, targeting recovery of a delinquent portfolio while offering interest‑free installments.

On 25 July, Torreón (Coahuila) announced a deadline of 31 July for homeowners to claim up to a 70 % reduction on property, pavement and public‑cleaning taxes, with a tiered discount structure based on cadastral value. Collected revenue will be allocated to public‑works and service improvements, and payments can be made at the treasury or online.

The following day, Chihuahua’s municipal government approved a full waiver of permit fees for the federal Infonavit “Vivienda para el Bienestar” programme. Valued at roughly 1.745 million pesos, the waiver aims to accelerate the first stage of the housing project, delivering 108 apartments across six buildings, with a longer‑term goal of 838 units in 47 buildings. The measure underscores municipal cooperation with state and federal authorities to expand affordable housing.

These actions complement earlier discounts in Piedras Negras, Torreón and other jurisdictions, reinforcing a broader trend of local tax incentives to stimulate compliance, generate revenue for municipal services, and support housing and infrastructure initiatives.
