𝗣𝗨𝗕𝗟𝗜𝗖 𝗔𝗗𝗩𝗜𝗦𝗢𝗥𝗬 : 𝗕𝗜𝗥 𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗦 𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗗𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗘 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗘𝗔𝗙𝗦 𝗦𝗨𝗕𝗠𝗜𝗦𝗦𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦 𝗨𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗟 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝟮𝟱

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has announced that it is extending the deadline for the submission of the 2025 Audited Financial Statements (AFS) and other mandatory attachments through the Electronic Audited Financial Statements (eAFS) facility until May 25, 2026.

The extension was finalized through Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 46-2026 to provide administrative relief to taxpayers who encountered eAFS system-related technical issues during the recently concluded 2025 Annual Income Tax Return (AITR) filing season.

Under this issuance, penalties arising solely from delayed attachment submissions during this period are waived.

The extension until May 25, 2026, strictly applies to the following taxpayers:

1. Those who were unable to successfully upload their 2025 AFS and attachments through the eAFS platform on or before May 15, 2026, due to system-related issues; and

2. Those who utilized the contingency email submission route on or before May 15, 2026, but have not yet received an official email acknowledgment receipt from their concerned BIR office.

Taxpayers who submitted their attachments through the prescribed contingency email procedure on or before May 15, 2026, and have already received an email acknowledgment from their concerned BIR office, are considered fully compliant.

They are not required to resubmit via the eAFS facility, though they may still choose to do so voluntarily.

The BIR clarified that this extension applies only to the submission of the AFS and related attachments through the eAFS facility. It does not extend the statutory deadline for the filing and payment of the Annual Income Tax Return (AITR) itself.

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has released RMC No. 38-2026, requiring online businesses to display a BIR Registration Seal Badge as proof of registration.

This applies to online sellers, freelancers, professionals, vloggers, influencers, and all individuals earning through digital platforms.

🔒 To protect your privacy, you are no longer required to post your full Certificate of Registration (COR).
Instead, you should only display the BIR Registration Seal Badge generated through ORUS.

📍 Make sure the badge is visible on your:
• Website
• E-commerce platform
• Social media business page

You may place it in sections like “About Us” or “Business Permits.”

✔️ Stay compliant
✔️ Protect your personal information

𝗕𝗜𝗥 𝗥𝗢𝗟𝗟𝗦 𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗥𝗘𝗚𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗦𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗕𝗔𝗗𝗚𝗘 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗤𝗥-𝗘𝗡𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘𝗗 𝗖𝗢𝗥 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗢𝗡𝗟𝗜𝗡𝗘 𝗕𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗦

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has issued Revenue Memorandum Circular (RMC) No. 38-2026, prescribing the issuance and mandatory posting of the BIR Registration Seal Badge for taxpayers engaged in online business activities.

The Circular covers digital economic participants, including online sellers, freelancers, professionals, vloggers, influencers, and other individuals earning income through digital platforms. It requires them to visibly display proof of registration through a BIR Registration Seal Badge on their websites, e-commerce platforms, or social media business pages.

To address data privacy concerns, the BIR clarified that taxpayers are no longer required to post their full Certificate of Registration (COR). Instead, only the BIR Registration Seal Badge generated via the Online Registration and Update System (ORUS) should be displayed to avoid exposing sensitive information such as the TIN and business address.

The BIR emphasized that the Registration Seal Badge serves as proof of registration for online transactions and must be posted in easily accessible sections of websites or platform pages, such as “About Us,” “Business Permits,” or equivalent sections.

Issuance of the Seal Badge is free of charge and may be secured electronically via ORUS or manually through the Revenue District Office (RDO). Taxpayers updating their registration online are required to pay the applicable ₱30.00 Documentary Stamp Tax (DST). Existing taxpayers are not required to replace their current COR without a QR Code. Still, they are encouraged to update their registration to avail of the Seal Badge for enhanced verification and compliance.

BIR Commissioner Charlito Martin R. Mendoza said the initiative forms part of the Bureau’s Revenue Collection and Base Protection efforts under BIR DARES.

“Revenue base protection is not only about enforcement after violations happen. It is also about ensuring that businesses operating in the digital marketplace are properly registered, visible, and accountable from the start. The Registration Seal Badge helps protect legitimate online sellers who comply with the law, and it also protects online buyers by giving them a simple and reliable way to verify if the business they are dealing with is registered with the BIR,” Commissioner Mendoza said.
