Puerto Rico Tax Changes

Time-Sensitive Tax Reform Updates

The Puerto Rico Governor has just signed a new law that will amend the terms of the Act 60 Investor program.  We have learned that this will raise the Investor tax rate for Puerto Rico-sourced short and long-term capital gains, dividends, and interest to 4% from the current 0%.

This change applies to all new Investor applications received after December 31, 2026.  For those who wish to apply before then to lock in the 0% terms, that option is still available.

Upcoming webinars will discuss this new law change as well as recent clarifications published.  See our webinar schedule here.

We will be publishing more details here as we receive them.  If you wish to join our mailing list to be notified of changes like this, please provide your details below or email us at info@PRAdvantage.com.  Or, click here to schedule a free consult today.
