Meeting tax deadlines take a considerable amount of time and resources for many business owners in Davao City. For many small business owners, managing taxes is a challenge, given the owners’ lack of expertise on how taxes are computed, but also the amount of time it takes while juggling the demands of running and supervising business operations.

Penalties for non-compliance

We wish to note that the BIR shall impose an additional 25% of the payable amount if the taxpayer fails to submit their tax returns or pay their outstanding balances due to any of the following reasons:

1. Failure to file any tax returns or payment of tax dues on the deadline or as required under the Tax Code;
2. Unless authorized by the BIR Commissioner, filing a tax return to an unauthorized person other than the BIR Internal Revenue Officer;
3. Failure to pay deficient taxes within the prescribed dates or that specified in the Notice of Assessment; or
4. Partial or non-full payment of the tax amount by the taxpayer. 

Moreover, the Tax Code also prescribes a 20% interest rate for unpaid taxes calculated from the date specified to be paid until the taxpayer has paid the tax amount due.
