Business-friendly Environment
Chile provides generous government support to entrepreneurs, including the second lowest corporate tax rate in Latin America (20%), making Chile more attractive than other developing countries. Products exported from Chile are completely exempt from tariffs and value-added tax, and import tariffs and value-added tax paid for the production of export products can also be refunded.
-
Tax and Fiscal Support
Chile’s standard corporate income tax rate is 27% under the general regime, with a reduced rate of 25% under the Pro-SME regime that allows full tax credit against final taxes (non-resident withholding tax or additional tax). Companies with charitable, non-profit, or religious purposes are exempt from corporate income tax.
-
Deep Connections with the Asia-Pacific Region
Chile has signed double taxation agreements with 28 countries, including Australia, Canada, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States, to reduce withholding taxes on dividends, interest, and royalties for foreign companies.
-
Supportive Governance
The Chilean government is open to foreign investment, with policy principles being clear, open, and non-discriminatory. In recent years, the government has been committed to streamlining the investment process, and foreign investors can enjoy moderate corporate tax incentives with no trading fees in the official foreign exchange market.
