Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Taxpayers Arriving at the District Office On/Before 5PM Will Be Assisted Regardless of the Time They Will Finish

Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) Commissioner Romeo D. Lumagui Jr. extended his heartfelt gratitude to the examiners and revenuers deployed by the different Revenue District Offices of the BIR to accommodate the thousands of taxpayers that are hoping to avail of the estate tax amnesty before the deadline. BIR District Offices have extended their work hours as late as 12MN. 

"As long as taxpayers arrive in the District Office on or before 5PM, the District Office will entertain their application for Estate Tax Amnesty whatever time they may finish, even if the District Office has to extend beyond normal office hours," Commissioner Lumagui stated.

The commitment of the examiners of the BIR was on full display when Commissioner Lumagui visited Revenue District Office No. 39 last June 11, 2025. 

"The BIR commits to helping our taxpayers in meeting the Estate Tax Amnesty Deadline. BIR District Offices have extended work hours until 12MN to help assist thousands of taxpayers in their estate tax issues. The BIR is here to serve." Commissioner Lumagui stated.

The Estate Tax Amnesty deadline under Republic Act No. 11213, as amended, encourages taxpayers to settle their estate liabilities computed at a flat rate of 6% and all penalties, surcharges, and interest are waived.

The BIR has also issued a Tax Advisory stating that banking hours of all Authorized Agent Banks are extended until 5:00PM from June 4 to June 16, 2025.
