The day without VAT has been implemented as a Government proposal that seeks that for 24 hours, on 3 days of the year, consumers can make purchases being exempt from the Value Added Tax, VAT, which is 19%.
The next June 17 the second day of discounts would take place. The last of the year would be held on December 2.

What is the purchase limit?
In this case, the consumer can purchase only up to 3 units of the same product sold in the same store. “Overcoming them generates the loss of profit,” explain the authorities.
Where do the discounts apply?
The benefits of the day without VAT are for purchases both in physical stores and through electronic commerce in all departments of the country.
What are the payment options?
Payments in cash, by credit card, debit card and other electronic mechanisms regulated by the Financial Superintendence are enabled to be part of the conference.
What items are exempt from VAT?
The discounts of the day without VAT will apply to clothing, appliances, computers, school supplies, sports items, toys and games, goods and supplies for the agricultural sector, jewelry and others.
What is the maximum term to send the products?
Within the regulation it is explained that the products that are purchased on the day without VAT must be dispatched a maximum of two weeks after making the purchase. After that date, the business must assume the payment of the tax.
How to calculate the value of the discount?
In this case, you must take the final price of the product that includes VAT and divide it by 1.19. This way you will know the total value.
