Bolivian VAT registration

Tax payers must be VAT registered to provide their first supply. Registration requires the following documentation:

 

  • Incorporation deeds
  • Proof of address of business
  • Appointed legal representative details
  • Completed Form MASI-001 registration application.

 

Once the application has been accepted, the taxpayer will receive a unique tax identification number (Número de Identificación Tributaria).

 

Bolivia does not provide a voluntary registration system since there is no registration threshold. There is also no provision of group VAT registrations where related businesses submit a consolidated return and are able to make intra-group transactions on a VAT-free basis.
