Understanding the Philippines’ New e-Invoicing Regulation: Key Changes and Compliance Guide

  • Mandatory Compliance for Specific Taxpayers: The new Revenue Regulations by the Philippines Bureau of Internal Revenue require mandatory electronic invoicing and sales reporting for companies engaged in e-commerce, large taxpayers, and entities within the Large Taxpayer Service, with a compliance deadline set for March 2026.
  • Implementation of Electronic Sales Reporting System (ESRS): Taxpayers must electronically transmit sales data in structured formats (e.g., JSON or XML) to the BIR, avoiding traditional formats like PDFs, to facilitate efficient data analysis.
  • Incentives and Penalties: Businesses adopting the new systems can receive tax deductions (100% for micro and small taxpayers, 50% for medium and large taxpayers), while non-compliance may result in penalties under the Tax Code. A transitional period is provided for initial compliance groups to adapt to these changes.
