ECUAWIKI › HOW-TO GUIDES › SRI ECUADOR

The Servicio de Rentas Internas (SRI) is Ecuador's national tax collection authority — equivalent to the IRS in the USA or HMRC in the UK. It administers income tax, value-added tax (VAT/IVA), and tax registration for businesses and individuals.

== Main Functions ==

* Administering the RUC (taxpayer registration) — see [[RUC & RISE]]
* Collecting VAT (IVA — Impuesto al Valor Agregado), currently 15% on most goods and services
* Collecting income tax (Impuesto a la Renta)
* Processing tax returns and refunds
* Auditing businesses and individuals
* Managing the RISE simplified regime for small earners

== Online Services (sri.gob.ec) ==

Much of what you need to do with the SRI can be handled online at their official website:

* Register for or update your RUC
* File monthly VAT declarations (if applicable)
* Submit annual income tax returns
* Download invoices and tax receipts
* Check outstanding balances and payment history
* Access electronic billing (facturación electrónica) tools

== The Electronic Invoice System ==

Ecuador has a comprehensive electronic invoicing requirement. All registered businesses must issue official electronic invoices (facturas electrónicas) through the SRI system for every transaction. This system has substantially formalized Ecuador's economy. As a consumer, you have the right to receive an official factura for any purchase.

== Local SRI Office ==

The nearest SRI office to the Santa Elena Peninsula is located in '''La Libertad'''. In-person visits are required for some procedures (original RUC registration, resolving discrepancies). Bring your original documents.

Hours: Typically Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM (verify locally as hours may change).

== Taxes Most Relevant to Expats ==

* '''Income Tax''' — applies to worldwide income for residents; foreign-sourced income may be exempt depending on circumstances. An Ecuadorian tax professional can advise.
* '''IVA (VAT)''' — paid automatically on most purchases at 15%
* '''Capital Gains (Plusvalía)''' — applies on property sales; see [[Property Taxes Ecuador]]
* '''Rental Income''' — rental income is taxable; landlords should register with RUC or RISE
