Taxes in Uruguay are collected by the General Taxation Directorate (Spanish: Dirección General Impositiva, DGI).
A major tax reform bill came into force on 1 July 2007 with the number 18083. Nevertheless, something important remained: Uruguay applies the source principle, with investments located and activities performed outside Uruguay remaining untouched.

Tax rates
- Value added taxes (VAT): basically 18%, but some goods (pharmaceutical, etc.) are taxed with 10%, and fruits and vegetables are not taxed. As of August 2014, the Financial Inclusion Law (Spanish: Ley de Inclusión Financiera) established a 4% tax deduction for sales with debit cards and 2% for credit cards.
- Corporate tax: it used to be 30%, since 2007 it was lowered to 25%, but special dispositions can bring this to 33%.
- Individual income tax: Since 2007 there is a progressive scale of taxation, with a non-taxable minimum. The payroll tax is part of the same tax scheme.
- Wealth tax: There is a non-taxable minimum which leaves the big majority of Uruguayans out of this duty. A progressive scale of taxation ranges from 0.7% to 2.75%.
