During the ninth month of this year, Internal Revenue contributed 75.7% of the State's tax revenues
SANTO DOMINGO.- The General Directorate of Internal Taxes (DGII) reported this Friday that collections for September 2026 reached a total of RD$79,290.5 million, for a year-on-year growth of 17.1%, equivalent to an additional RD$11,587.2 million compared to the same month of 2025.
The result was mainly driven by the growth of the Tax on Transfers of Industrialized Goods and Services (ITBIS) and the Income Tax (ISR) of Individuals, which registered the largest contributions to the increase in tax revenues during the month.
With this performance, the DGII exceeded by RD$2,542.8 million the goal established in the General State Budget, set at RD$76,747.7 million, for a level of compliance of 103.3%.
While the accumulated revenues between January and September 2026, the institution collected RD$751,168.7 million, which represents a compliance of 100.5% and a surplus of RD$3,461.5 million above what was estimated.
Compared to the same period in 2025, collections registered a year-on-year growth of 9.4%, equivalent to an additional RD$64,477.0 million.
During September, the DGII contributed 75.7% of the State's tax revenues.
Tax contribution
The ITBIS was the tax with the greatest impact on the growth of collections, generating RD$20,309.3 million, for a year-on-year increase of 16.4%, equivalent to an additional RD$2,860.7 million compared to September 2025.
This performance was due to a year-on-year growth of 7.0% in total sales and 4.3% in taxable sales, driven mainly by the vehicle, construction and manufacturing sectors.
Meanwhile, Personal Income Tax revenue totaled RD$14,621.6 million, registering a year-on-year increase of 44.6%, which represents RD$4,512.4 million more than in September of last year. This performance was explained by the increase in both the number of taxed employees and the amount of withholdings.
In that regard, the Corporate and Asset Income Tax reached a collection of RD$13,645.9 million, for a growth of 3.5%, equivalent to RD$464.7 million more than the same period of the previous year.
Meanwhile, Selective Fuel Taxes collected RD$7,599.3 million, with a year-on-year growth of 13.2%, equivalent to an additional RD$888.1 million.
