The General Directorate of Customs (DGA) updated the reference export values of raisins, through the General Resolution 5084/2021, published this Friday (01.10.2021) in the Official Gazette.
The measure is part of the instruments deployed by the Government to identify under-invoicing maneuvers in exports.
The decision of the body led by Silvia Traverso thus offers a tool to dismantle tax evasion maneuvers and abusive practices that affect the entry of foreign currency into the exchange market.
Reference values also help to address unfair competition from operators who do not comply with the rules.
The RG defined a update of the reference values set last year by the DGA for the export of black seedless raisins in immediate packaging with a net content greater than 2,5 kilograms and less than or equal to 20 kilos.
The export destinations for which the regulations apply are: Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela.
Reference values provide an initial check on declarations to safeguard tax interests and allow for the detection of deviations from the usual values for identical or similar goods.
Reference values have already been established for 17 product complexes since Traverso began his tenure at the DGA in December 2019.
Exports were set for peanuts, dried plums, limes and lemons, shrimp, hides and skins, pears, apples, garlic, pork, pear tomatoes, concentrated must, blueberries, powdered milk, onions, potatoes, sea bass and beef.
