 On 01APRIL24 These are the 208 most consumed products that will pay 15% VAT from April 1, 2024. Check the guide to everything that will increase in price when VAT goes to 15% in April, among the goods are cars, lunches, clothes.

The new Value Added Tax (VAT) rate will go from 12% to 15%, as confirmed by President Daniel Noboa. The Law to combat the internal conflict ordered that VAT rise from 12% to 13% and gave the power to the President of the Republic, Daniel Noboa, to increase that rate to 15%. These regulations were already published in the Official Registry, on March 12, 2024, so the president can now use that power.
With a VAT at 15%, the Government expected additional income of USD 1.3 billion per year. In 2024 alone he could receive about USD 1,000 million. These monies will be used not only to cover security expenses, but also the State's arrears and the expenses incurred by the damage caused by the rains during February 2024, the Government anticipated.

Of the 359 products that make up the basket of goods and services consumed by a typical household and used by the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INEC) to calculate inflation, a total of 208 now have 12% VAT and 151 do not pay this tax. Among those who do not pay are rice, bread, fruits and vegetables.

  “A journey is best measured in friends rather than miles.”
            -Tim Cahill, via EEJ /CC,

  "Sometimes what looks like procrastination is really patience, strategic timing,
  and freeing up capacity for what's next. It's OK to not be ready yet."- 'M.D.'

  (However at some point:)

 "If you wait for the perfect time to launch a new business,
 you will never be in business. If you want to travel,
 there is no perfect time. Don't wait for conditions
 to be perfect for anything...just go do it!"
 ----

  “Now is the time to get serious about living your ideals. How long can you afford
 to put off who you really want to be? Your nobler self cannot wait any longer.
 Put your principles into practice – now.
 Stop the excuses and the procrastination. This is your life!
 You aren’t a child anymore. The sooner you set yourself to your spiritual program,
 the happier you will be.
 The longer you wait, the more you’ll be vulnerable to mediocrity
 and feel filled with shame and regret, because you know you are capable of better.
 From this instant on, vow to stop disappointing yourself.
 Separate yourself from the mob. Decide to be extraordinary and
 do what you need to do – now.” ~ Epictetus
