Solo parents may soon avail of the 10-percent discount and value-added tax (VAT) exemption on their purchases of essentials such as baby’s milk, diapers, and doctor-prescribed medicines for their children six years of age and below, as provided under a new law on financial aid for single dads and moms.
Under RR 1-2023, the actual grant of the discounts and VAT exemptions to the qualified single parents are subject to the guidelines to be issued by the Department of Health (DOH), in coordination with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Philippine Health Insurance Corp. (PhilHealth) and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG).
