00:00 To those who have business there, have you experienced tax mapping or what is also called the National Tax Compliance Drive Program?
00:07 If you don't know what it is and what is included in it, let's all watch this.
00:14 The tax mapping or National Tax Compliance Verification Drive Program of the Bureau of Internal Revenue is an important part of the system that is implemented in the country.
00:26 This is a way in which the BIR conducts an investigation of information about income, property and other assets of an individual or company.
00:38 As part of this program, Paranaque City started their Regionwide Tax Verification Drive this January.
00:49 The Bureau of Internal Revenue will go out to their offices to provide information about registration and other tax requirements that a mayor needs.
01:05 This is nationwide.
01:07 Through nationwide tax mapping, the BIR ensures that the correct amount of tax is collected based on the correct and accurate information.
01:17 This is just a tax awareness so that they can know what they should comply with when they do business.
01:26 First, they should be registered in the BIR.
01:30 Second, they should issue an official receipt to all their customers.
01:36 And then they should report how much their sales are daily.
01:41 For example, a taxpayer cannot register their business here but we can help them to register in the BIR.
01:54 Paranaque City also provided support to the National Tax Compliance Verification Drive Program of the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
02:02 Under the administration of Mayor Eric Olivares, we are always supportive of BIR.
02:10 We provide programs to them and accommodate them.
02:13 Like now, with their tax mapping and information dissemination, they have a spot in our lounge where they can interact.
02:23 Our taxpayers can go to them and answer queries about BIR and taxes.
02:31 The tax mapping that the BIR is doing is an instrument that provides a way to implement the correct collection of taxes.
