Seminar on compliance with BIR’s Computerized Accounting System

MANILA, Philippines — There are over 3,780 large taxpayers nationwide, many of whom are not compliant to the Bureau of Internal Revenue Regulation 9-2009 requiring large taxpayers to have a Computerized Accounting System (CAS). This is also relevant to the top 500 medium-sized provincial taxpayers in every revenue district which has the equivalent classification of a large taxpayer.

To help medium and large taxpayers on compliance issues, the Center for Global Best Practices will host a training program titled, “BIR Computerized Accounting System Compliance for Medium and Large Taxpayers,” on Aug. 30, 2019 at the Manila Marriott Hotel, Pasay City.

With the activation of the BIR special task force called Computerized Systems Evaluation Team (CSET) to monitor medium and large taxpayers, one can expect more active campaigns and stricter enforcement from the tax authorities. The lecture will include discussions on the regulations and rulings, presentation of the challenges of getting BIR CAS accreditation and how to prepare for the actual system demonstration required by the BIR. Attending this will help medium and large taxpayers hurdle and solve their CAS headaches, issues and most importantly, prevent those dreaded BIR penalties.

This will feature seasoned practitioner Bienvenido Constantino, whose expertise includes aligning large taxpayers’ IT-based accounting systems to comply with the regulations on CAS. He is the CEO of Helix Software Technologies, an Australian IT firm specializing in cloud technologies designed for SME, medium and large enterprises as well as for LGUs.
