During the holidays, make sure the alcohol you buy is legal: SAT

In the context of the Christmas and New Year celebrations, the Tax Authorities (SAT) emphasizes the importance of verifying the authenticity of alcoholic beverages using the tax and health label applied to containers with a capacity of not more than five thousand milliliters.

Under the Special Tax on Production and Services (IEPS) Act, taxpayers involved in the production, production, marketing and importation of alcoholic beverages are required to affix labels to their products.

Original alcoholic beverages have a label that helps confirm the origin, quality and legality of the drinks, either physically, attached to the containers or electronically, printed with authorized folio on labels or back labels.

Domestic drinks have a green label and imported drinks have a burgundy color. There are two types of labels: electronic, which is part of the label or back label; and the physical, which has the same image.

It is necessary to check its legality and origin. You must scan the QR code of labels on bottles of alcoholic beverages.

So far in 2023, SAT has distributed a total of 542 million tags, of which 341 million are physical and 201 million are electronic.

These include touch-sensitive printing, non-drying inks, logo color change and an electronic QR code. Consumers can scan this QR code to check whether the data matches the product they want to purchase.

SAT guaranteed that these measures provide security for both taxpayers and consumers and guarantee the economic and commercial activity of the sector.

This ensures tax compliance, allowing citizens to participate in the audit through product verification tools.
