The Commissioner of Internal Revenue (“CIR”) has issued Revenue Memorandum Circular (“RMC”) No. 38-2014 dated 5 May 2014 to inform all taxpayers and Accredited Tax Agents (ATAs) who are enrolled in the Bureau of Internal Revenue’s (BIR) Interactive Filing System (BIR-IAFS) and others concerned on the additional channels of payment of the IAFS-Authorized Agent Banks (AABs) which are as follows:

1. Retail Internet Banking System-iAccess of the Land Bank of the Philippines; and

2. Internet Banking System of the Philippine National Bank.

Effective 12 May 2014, taxpayers enrolled under the eBIRForms On-line System can pay their taxes, except those due from annual ITRs, through these payment facilities. To avail of such on-line payment facilities, interested parties can directly inquire from the above-listed AABs.

An official advisory will be released soon to inform taxpayers and others concerned of the updated/additional names of AABs that are already authorized to accept on-line tax payments.
