Basic Forms Needed For Common BIR Transactions

The Bureau of Internal Revenue had made conscious efforts to embrace technology and continously look into efficient measures for easy preparation and filing of tax returns. Just recently, the BIR ordered the mandatory implementation of the eBIRForms or the electronic BIR Forms. The eBIRForms was developed to provide taxpayers and filers with easy, accessible and convenient service in the preparation and filing of tax returns. The use of the eBIRForms will improve the Bureau's tax return data capture and storage thereby enhancing efficiency and accuracy in the filing of tax returns.



The following are the common BIR Forms, although not complete, some of which are included in the eBIRForms. We posted it here for the purpose of information about the said forms and when shall these forms be accomplished. This should guide you for what they are for and when they should be filed. Business owners, accountants, and liaison officers are expected to know most if not all of these forms needed for tax concerns.
