Laging binabago ng mga hype na BIR at iba pang govt agency yung mga filing at kung ano anong compliance... para laging complicated , pra laging hirap sa compliance mga small business, pra penalTy nga naman..
yung rules today, iba na naman sa rules tomorrow..
pro now i just realized yung BIR is kumbaga minions lang, ang talagang mga buwaya is yung mga nasa congress, both house of rep & senate.. Imagine mo naman kung gaano kalaki yung excise tax sa mga gasolina.. then additional 12% VAT pa.
mas malaki nga naman makukuha sa tax, mas mas madaming maletang makukubra..
mga katulad ni Salceda, VATman Recto, Angara.. mga hype talaga..

1. As of March 2026, the excise tax on fuel in the Philippines is pegged at P10 per liter for gasoline and other liquid fuels, and P6 per liter for diesel, with a 12% Value Added Tax (VAT) applied on top of these prices. Proposals are under consideration to suspend these taxes, potentially reducing gasoline prices by P10 and diesel by P6, say Inquirer.net and ABS-CBN. 2. The excise tax on fuel in the Philippines, officially known as the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Law (RA 10963), was principally authored by Representative Dakila Cua in the House of Representatives and sponsored in the Senate by Senator Sonny Angara. It was signed by President Rodrigo Duterte in December 2017.
Key individuals involved in the passage of the fuel tax law:

The law introduced tiered increases in excise taxes on fuel, which took effect beginning in 2018. The law aimed to generate revenue for infrastructure projects (Build, Build, Build) while adjusting tax rates for a more progressive system
