Administrative and Regulatory Compliance (SEC, BIR, LGU, etc.)
Proactive regulatory compliance, permits, and defense before the SEC, BIR, Local Government Units, and government agencies.
Practice Scope & Legal Framework
Navigating multi-tiered regulatory requirements in the Philippines demands deep institutional knowledge. We interface directly with regulators to secure permits, resolve audit discrepancies, and maintain pristine compliance standings.
Regulatory Interfaces
- Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC): Mandatory disclosures, beneficial ownership declarations, capital increases, and penalty contestations.
- Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR): Tax clearances, authority to print, transfer clearances, and administrative protests.
- Local Government Units (LGUs): Mayor's and business permits, local business tax (LBT) assessment defense, and zoning clearances.
- Sectoral Regulators: Regulatory approvals before FDA, PRC, LTFRB, DICT, and other statutory oversight bodies.
