Tax Incentives Available to Puerto Rican Residents

  • Holberton Software Institute 1550 Puerto Rico 25 San Juan, San Juan, 00909 Puerto Rico (map)

About This Event

To stimulate economic development in Puerto Rico, a new law was passed that outlines tax incentives that are available to exist residents of Puerto Rico. The law supports entrepreneurs and business development across a variety of industries, including agriculture, tourism, real estate, film, and more.

At our next FinTech PR Meetup, we'll be learning about these tax incentives, who can take advantage of them, and how. You'll walk away with the answers to questions like:

  • Which tax incentives am I eligible for?

  • What are the benefits of the tax incentives?

  • What are the requirements to qualify?

  • How do I apply? How much does it cost?

"In order to promote the necessary conditions to attract investment from industries, support small and medium merchants, face challenges in medical care and education, simplify processes, optimize and provide greater transparency, Act 60-2019 was signed, which establishes the new Puerto Rico Incentives Code."
