Mga sis good morning. I have a question, for my online business, sole proprietor. I have filed the DTI na ang the baranggay yesterday. When I went to the municipal they asked me to think about it well kasi end na daw sa year and I have to file for renewal na daw ulit sa January.

For those who know, do I file again the baranggay, municipal and BIR on January ba?

Appreciate any input mga sis.

Hi sis this may be a different but quite related topic. My sister has small convenient store and we somewhat wanted it to legalize for the purpose of the ITR since I need it for my sister to get a visa in a certain country to be able to travel with us and ITR is one the of major requirement to cut it short, I wanted to ask, if she'll apply for MIE or marginal income earner. Does it has income tax to pay as well? and if what is the actually process of MIE. Thanks really much appreciated for helpful replies.

Hello mearah. Renewal of permit is always the same month every year, in this case January. If you apply and got your permit in November, your permit will expire on Dec 31, 2016 and you will need to renew your business permit in January 2017 same with your business barangay clearance, and BIR Annual Fee form. DTI is good for 5 years. Is 2 months waiting worth it to you? Makaka profit kaba to negate your overhead expenses including the renewal of the permits? Also your precious time. Some things to consider.

May nabasa ako dito from a different poster sa link you need to register sa BIR for online sellers. Yes tama po yun sabi ng BIR officers sa RDO branch but only if you are making a living out of it. You do not need to register or apply for sales invoices / official receipt if you are going to sell for example your old refrigerator, or your textbook,etc sa olx or facebook as long as you aren't making a livelihood from it okay lang.

Hi Mga sis

Newbie here, ask ko lang po, balak ko kasi mag tayo ng Trading Store at Food Store.

ok lang ba iisang name ang iregister ko sa DTI kahit na magkaibang venue ko sila ilalagay pero same City padin naman.

Dapat po ba ganito?

"JUAN DELA CRUZ FOOD AND TRADING"

OR

'JUAN DELA CRUZ TRADING"

ay okay na for both food & trading? I mean understood na po na may food at trading sa business ku?

I just applied for a business permit and BIR for online business. I am located in Marikina and it took me about 3 weeks to have everything set-up. But it can be quicker if I really committed to finish the requirements right away.

My business is online. I opt to get BIR receipts so I can also land corporate clients.

Roughly how much did you spend for the BIR and business permit sis?

Hi Sis,

1. DTI - Business Name Registration online P2,000 National level for 5 years + 15 documentary stamp tax (DST)
*I have chosen the option of downloading certificate so I can just print on my own as many times and I don't have to go to DTI personally
2. Barangay business clearance and barangay clearance - P500 and P30 respectively renewable by January.  The amount  of business clearance depends on the barangay. Also you would need CTC for this. I just declared unemployed so I only paid less than P6.
3. Mayor's permit - P1,483.50 already includes the plates, sanitary inspection and permit fee, etc. this should be renewed by January 20 next year Also prior to this I was required to get zoning clearance and paid P130 for that. one time reqt only)
4. BIR COR - P500 + P15 DST renewable next year
5. Invoices - P1,200 For 10 copies of simple invoices and OR so total of P2,400. 5 years valid.
6. Books of accounts - I forgot to get this one but maybe less than 200 roughly.

Haha I gave the details but adding it up around P6,000 at the start then P2,500 yearly. I think if you will register the sole prop only under your name you don't need the Mayor's permit for the BIR. so would be lesser.

HTH!
