Implementation of the Quarterly Filing of VAT Returns Starting January 1, 2023

According to Section 4-114-1 (A) of Revenue Regulations (RR) No. 13-2018, “Beginning January 1, 2023, the filing and payment required under this subsection shall be done within twenty-five (25) days following the close of each taxable quarter.”

However, they are required to file the Quarterly Value-Added Tax Return (BIR Form 2550Q) within 25 days following the close of each taxable quarter when the transaction occurred.
