The entities included in Brackets I and II will be required to file the UBO declaration before the deadlines established according to the last digit of their Tax ID number, as detailed below:

For Bracket I

For Bracket II

The entities in Bracket III will be considered to be included in such bracket provided that these have not been previously required to file the UBO declaration. SUNAT will issue a new resolution with a schedule applicable to these entities.

Legal Entities registered in the RUC as of December 31, 2022

The registration of these entities in the Unique Taxpayers’ Registry (RUC) must be valid upon filing the UBO declaration. Such declaration must be filed before the deadlines established to settle the monthly tax obligations of December 2022, according to the last digit of their Tax ID number, as detailed below:

The entities which are within the scope of neither the resolution nor Article 5 of Superintendency Resolution No. 185-2019/SUNAT will be required to file the UBO declaration as set out by SUNAT in another resolution.

It is worth pointing out that the value of 1 tax unit for year 2022 is PEN 4,600.

Finally, this resolution will be effective since March 25, 2022.
