Client pays the fee. Ask if it's included or additional, just like you should at a hotel (room) or restaurant (food). Yes, it's the law, it's called ITBIS.
The lawyers are bad, but you don't have to tip them also (10%). Only subject to 16% ITBIS
Sorry lmao.......I meant in general......its like 26% Even my orange bill is subject 2 that extra 10%.......It depends on the law firm........Fabio do you charge the 26% or 16%??
It should NOT depend on the law firm. By law they have to charge 16% ITBIS.
If a law firm is adding an additional 10% on top of ITBIS, post their details here and I will have the tax man pay them a visit and shut them down.
I always thought the 10% (ISC) tax was different to the 10% service charge added at restaurants.
Guzman Ariza only charges 16%. The 10% is a special service tax for restaurants, hotels, etc. not applicable to law firms or any other professional service.
