- Transitory domestic market enterprises in economic zones can now choose to register as VAT taxpayers
- The regulation follows an amendment to the Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises Act implementing rules
- Registered business enterprises in economic or freeport zones can keep the 5% gross income earned incentive for 10 years and register as VAT taxpayers with certification from the relevant investment promotion agency
- The new ruling enables VAT-registered DMEs to either charge output VAT to domestic customers or receive a refund for input VAT directly attributable to their zero-rated sales
- Non-VAT registered RBEs with certification should update their registrations with the BIR revenue district office, transitioning from non-VAT to VAT taxpayer status
- DMEs within economic or freeport zones opting for VAT registration under the new ruling cannot claim VAT refunds for transactions before the amended IRR of the CREATE Act’s effectivity.
