The problem
When a company sells goods, lends money or charges for services to another company in the same group, the SAT wants to see a market price.
That is, the same price two independent companies would have agreed on. Without a study to prove it, any difference becomes a tax adjustment, and in an audit the burden of proof is on you.

Frequently asked questions
Who needs a transfer pricing study in Mexico?
Generally, companies that carry out transactions with related parties, in Mexico or abroad, must price them at arm's length and be able to prove it. Documentation requirements depend on your revenue and the type of transaction, so we review them with you.
What happens if I don't have a study?
If the SAT concludes your transactions weren't priced at arm's length, it can adjust your prices and assess additional taxes, plus surcharges and penalties. Documentation is your main defense.
Do you also value intangibles between group companies?
Yes. Intercompany intangible asset valuation is one of our complementary services, along with international corporate restructuring.
