F.A.Q. About Closing Costs in Mexico
Who pays closing costs?
In Mexican property transactions, the buyer is legally responsible for paying all closing taxes and fees (including ISAI and Notary honorarios). The seller is generally only responsible for capital gains tax (ISR) and broker fees.
What is the ISAI / Acquisition tax?
The Impuesto Sobre Adquisición de Inmuebles (ISAI) is a municipal acquisition tax. It ranges from 2% in places like Oaxaca or Jalisco up to 4.5% or more progressively in CDMX. It is computed based on either the purchase price or the commercial appraisal.
Why are Notary Fees Mandatory?
In Mexico, transactions are only fully deeded when signed off by a licensed *Notario Público* who acts as a neutral legal representative of the state. They review title deeds, verify RAN registration, withhold acquisition taxes, and register the final deed.
