In terms of local development, the sources of financing are decisive and own sources are even more so, due to the complexity of accessing external sources. Within this framework of monetary resources, tax fees, due to their peculiar taxable event and the specific purpose of their collection, occupy a special place. In Cuba, even when local development is a priority in the country's policy and there are several sources of financing, these are insufficient, while tax fees do not play a leading role. In this sense, the objective of this work is to argue the theoretical assumptions to introduce in Cuba tax fees that contribute to finance local development and for this purpose the following methods have been used: analytical-legal, in order to assess the different legal provisions that regulate the sources of financing in Cuba, particularly tax fees and other related revenues, whether they expressly recognize them, as if their configuration responds to that of a fee without declaring it and the legal comparison to contrast the different rules that provide tax fees, although they are diverse regulations. The main result consists of a proposal for a uniform and systemic regulation of a set of fees which taxable event is constituted by the provision of a service or the performance of an activity by the State or the special use of things of public domain, of municipal competence, which collection has a specific purpose, thus favoring the financing of local development projects.
