| Mexico | AMR | La política de precios de los productos al tabaco, se ha mantenido prácticamente sin cambios significativos desde el último informe, toda vez que al igual que en los años anteriores, el paquete económico 2023 (Ley de ingresos) no consideró nuevos impuestos ni aumentos a los ya existentes. No obstante, en el caso de los impuestos especiales de producción y servicios (IEPS), para los cigarros sólo se contempló la actualización automática según la inflación anual, como previsto por la Ley. Asimismo, es importante señalar que, como parte de una política de Estado, existe un compromiso político por parte del Gobierno Federal de no incrementar los impuestos a ningún producto de consumo ordinario o no ordinario, aun cuando existe toda la evidencia científica nacional e internacional que sostiene la costo-efectividad de la política de precios como medidas de reducción de la demanda. Por lo anterior, no se vislumbra ningún cambio en la aplicación del artículo 6 del convenio, al menos no durante el año actual y el siguiente, distinto a los aumentos automáticos por inflación. En 2019, se estableció que la cuota específica para los productos de tabaco se actualizara la cual entro en vigor el 1 de enero de 2020 con el factor de actualización correspondiente al período comprendido del mes de diciembre de 2010 hasta el mes de diciembre de 2019. Asimismo, se estableció que dicha cuota específica se actualice anualmente y entre en vigor a partir del 1 de enero de cada año. En los últimos dos años los precios a los productos de tabaco han aumentado, sin embargo, para ese periodo el incremento a los impuestos no se había ajustado de acuerdo con la inflación, por lo que se espera que con esta última modificación los precios a los productos de tabaco sean aun mas elevados. Al 2023, la carga total de impuestos es de cerca del 68%. | En 2019, se estableció que la cuota específica para los productos de tabaco se actualizara la cual entro en vigor el 1 de enero de 2020 con el factor de actualización correspondiente al período comprendido del mes de diciembre de 2010 hasta el mes de diciembre de 2019.
