Even if we adhere to all regulations, the BIR scrutinizes non-compliant returns with a keen eye. Navigating the thorough tax assessment process can be challenging, so it's crucial for taxpayers to be well-prepared when they receive a Letter of Authority (LOA) from the BIR.

To empower taxpayers with essential knowledge, we are offering a seminar on tax assessment with relevant updates on the recently enacted Ease of Paying Taxes (EOPT) Act. Those currently undergoing assessment will also gain valuable insights into effectively managing their BIR assessments.

Our speakers will also delve into taxpayers’ compliance, providing nuanced insights into the latest tax updates on filing and payment of taxes, invoicing requirements, and other administrative requirements brought by EOPT.

Join us to stay abreast of the latest tax assessment procedures, including the do’s and don'ts during BIR audit and tips on how to address BIR’s common findings, and to be equipped with the knowledge needed to navigate the latest updates on tax compliance with ease.
