Companies that do business in Latin America have to deal with specific taxation requirements from government authorities. The SuiteTax Latam Engine SuiteApp enables you to comply with local tax determination and calculation needs.
SuiteTax Latam Engine provides a Tax Engine plug-in implementation and custom records for you to set up tax determination in different contexts. The SuiteApp also provides a custom plug-in type, the SuiteTax Latam Engine Plug-in. With this plug-in type, you can create your own implementations to calculate taxes such as sales tax, value added tax (VAT), withholding tax, and others.
The SuiteTax Latam Engine SuiteApp leverages the SuiteTax feature. However, it is not related or dependent on the SuiteTax Engine SuiteApp.
Predefined Plug-in for Basic Tax Calculation
SuiteTax Latam Engine includes a general plug-in for basic tax calculation, but does not provide predefined records for any country or region. For more information, see General Tax Plug-in for the SuiteTax Latam Engine.
If you need to address specific scenarios, you must create your own plug-ins and records, or install another SuiteApp that provides the records for you. NetSuite offers some SuiteApps that implement SuiteTax Latam Engine and provide predefined records and plug-ins to enable tax calculation in specific countries. For more information, see SuiteTax Latam Engine Country-Specific SuiteApps.
