CONSIDERING

That on December 11, 2013, the "Decree by which various provisions of the Value Added Tax Law; the Special Tax on Production and Services Law; the Federal Rights Law are reformed, added to, and repealed; the Income Tax Law is issued; and the Single Rate Corporate Tax Law and the Tax on Cash Deposits Law are abrogated" was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation, through which the fees applicable to those taxpayers who use, exploit, or take advantage of national waters transferred from a different basin with which there is no natural connection were established, with the objective of including a proportional and equitable regulatory scheme that determines and assigns the distribution of the water resource efficiently;

That on November 13, 2023, the "Decree by which various provisions of the Federal Rights Law are reformed, added to, and repealed" was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation, by which the concept of transfer in Article 223-Bis was modified to establish that transfer shall be considered the use, exploitation, or taking advantage of national waters conducted from one hydrological basin to another through hydraulic infrastructure works;

That Article 223-Bis of the Federal Rights Law establishes that natural and legal persons referred to in Articles 222 and 223 of the aforementioned order, who directly transfer national waters, as well as those who benefit from indirect transfer, will pay in addition to the fees provided in Article 223 of the Federal Rights Law, those included in the aforementioned Article 223-Bis, taking into account the uses established in Article 223 of the referenced law, as well as the availability zones from which the transferred water is exported and the import zone. This, considering that such transferred waters have a higher value due to the environmental impact and social opportunity cost caused by their extraction;

That the aforementioned numeral 223-Bis of the Federal Rights Law, in addition to establishing the applicable fees for the transfer of national waters, states that taxpayers may opt to add to the fee provided in Article 223 of the aforementioned order, the fee determined according to the formula established in said article and that, as an administrative convenience, the Secretariat of Finance and Public Credit will publish in the Official Gazette of the Federation, no later than the last day of the second month of the corresponding fiscal year, the fees applicable to the transfer during said year, resulting from the application of the cited formula, for which the following is issued:
