DIOT Report
The DIOT report (Declaration of Operations with Third Parties) is used to declare the purchase transactions to the Mexican tax authorities, which is Servicio de Administración Tributaria (SAT) or also known as the Tax Administration Service. The DIOT report must be submitted every month your business makes a purchase transaction.
