How this service works
Authoritative Latin American government reference values as clean JSON: central-bank policy rates, VAT rates, national minimum wages and public holidays for Argentina (ar), Brazil (br), Chile (cl), Colombia (co), Costa Rica (cr), Dominican Republic (do), Ecuador (ec), Guatemala (gt), Mexico (mx), Peru (pe), Paraguay (py), Uruguay (uy). Every value carries a citation to its official primary source (government gazette or central-bank statement), an effective date, a last-confirmed date and a staleness flag.
Output
A JSON object containing: the data series value (or null with explanation if discontinued), its unit, effective date, last-confirmed date, a staleness boolean, structured source attribution (name + URL to official government or central bank document), country code, series name, contextual notes, and a disclaimer about independent status.
Example use cases
Compliance check for payroll system
“What is the current national minimum wage in Mexico, including when it took effect and a link to the official government source? I need this for our payroll compliance review.”
Tax calculation for cross-border invoicing
“What is the VAT rate in Colombia right now, with the official government citation? We're setting up cross-border invoicing and need the authoritative figure.”
Financial model with verified macro inputs
“Can you get me Chile's current central bank policy rate — the official one with a source URL and effective date — so I can plug it into our financial model?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://latamref.dev/v1/%7Bcountry%7D/%7Bseries%7DWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative, citation-backed Latin American government reference data (policy rates, VAT, minimum wages, public holidays) with explicit primary-source URLs, effective dates, and staleness indicators — especially for compliance, financial modeling, or any use case where traceability to official government sources matters. Prefer it over general web search or financial data aggregators when you need structured JSON with per-field provenance for one of the 12 supported LATAM countries.

- Unsupported series type for a given country returns an error
- Value returned as null when the official rate has been discontinued (with explanation in notes field)

"notes": "Served as null on purpose. On 2025-07-10 the BCRA discontinued the Letras Fiscales de Liquidez (LeFi) and, with them, ended the tasa de política monetaria that had functioned as its reference rate. Under the current monetary-aggregates regime the BCRA controls the quantity of money and lets interest rates be determined endogenously by market supply and demand — it no longer sets or publishes a single policy rate, so no honest primary-source figure exists for this field. The nearest published benchmark the BCRA and market now watch is the TAMAR (Tasa Mayorista de Argentina, based on 30–35 day wholesale time deposits of ARS 1bn+): 22.63% TNA for 30-day deposits per BCRA data as of 2026-07-14 (https://www.lamacro.ar/variables), but this is a market-calculated rate, NOT a BCRA-set policy rate, so it is reported here only as context. Because inflation and money-market rates move fast, re-verify on a short cycle. History below shows the last explicit policy rates before abolition.",
