Peru fiscal and tax administration developments

Overview

The Peruvian government has taken steps to manage tax policy and relief through different legislative and administrative channels.

The Ministry of Economy and Finance proposed a bill to extend the income tax exemption on interest earned from savings deposits, which is currently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2026. This initiative, approved by the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, aims to prevent savers from being taxed on interest starting in 2027, though new eligibility requirements may be introduced.

Separately, the National Superintendency of Customs and Tax Administration (Sunat) has implemented automatic tax relief for taxpayers in districts declared to be in a state of emergency due to natural disasters. These measures, which include extended deadlines for filing returns and making payments, are applied automatically based on a taxpayer’s registered fiscal domicile to provide immediate liquidity without requiring formal applications.
