CLThe article discusses a change in Chile's tax credit policy aimed at promoting export jobs in the knowledge-based services industry. Originally a universal tax credit, it was reoriented to focus on export-oriented service industries, particularly those involving digital technology and remote delivery. The new law allows companies exporting 'knowledge' services to claim a 15% tax credit against the first category income tax, based on worker salaries. The definition of eligible services will be determined by a decree and report from the Ministry of Economy, which will maintain an annual update process. A public consultation period is set for 15 administrative days. Additionally, companies operating outside the Metropolitan Region or in rural areas receive an extra 5 percentage points on the tax credit. The maximum monthly salary for workers benefiting from this credit is capped at 75 Tax Units, equivalent to around $5.3 million gross. The measure is expected to cost over $100 million annually. The Ministry of Finance plans to publish an impact report on employment, fiscal effects, and industry growth every five years.
