No, well it’s good that they held the World Cup here, huh
FIFA neighborhood in need.- The Government of Mexico advertisement that the FIFA will be exempt from paying taxes during the Soccer World Cup that will be held next year, and well, we no longer understood that “there would no longer be tax remissions for anyone.”
In news that has really bothered the population, it was announced that the Government of Mexico had granted the honest organization tax exemption for the World Cup 2026after the proposal included in the Income Law of the Federation (LIF) 2026 was approved by the Congress.

The World Cup will leave a great economic impact, they said…
The exemption will not only benefit the prestigious governing body of world football, but also companies, television stations and people involved in the organization and logistics of the tournament, confirming that the choice of our country to host a dozen matches of the tournament was a blessing, including the Azerbaijan vs Cape Verdewhich promises to be more explosive than the First “A” games (yes, that’s what we will always call the second division).
“It is proposed to free natural and legal persons that participate in the organization, development and carrying out of activities linked to said competence from tax and administrative burdens,” points out the opinion of Congress, which of course was not submitted to a show of hands by the people.

In addition to not touching FIFA with the petal of a contribution, the agreement also contemplates the exemption of taxes such as Income Tax (ISR)as well as withholding, collection, integer and other formalitiesas long as the income is directly linked to the World Cup.
The same document, approved within next year’s fiscal miscellany, includes a “explanation of reasons” in which the tax exception is “justified” on the grounds that “b“It seeks to detonate positive economic, tourist and social impacts”in a tax scheme that hopefully will also be valid for the next annual declaration of any citizen who says that “it’s all about supporting Chivas.”
