- The analysis suggests a national tax rate of 20 percent to eliminate the main provincial tax, proposing an 11 percent provincial VAT to replace the Ingresos Brutos tax, which should collect 4 percent of GDP. The national VAT currently generates revenue equivalent to 7 percent of GDP, and the estimated provincial VAT rate is around 11.4 percent, though it could drop to 10.9 percent with collection advances, resulting in a total indirect tax burden for consumers of 30.9 to 31.4 percent. However, most jurisdictions lack the capacity to administer the VAT effectively.
