All enterprises are required to secure a Business License and Mayor’s Permit, and pay business taxes before the start of commercial operations.
The license must be renewed from January 1 to 20, every year, otherwise penalties are imposed after this period.
Business taxes for new enterprises are based on capitalization. Those for succeeding years are computed as a percentage of gross receipts/sales. Payments may be made annually, semi-annually or quarterly. Taxes are due on the first 20 days of each quarter.
Renewal of licenses may take 30 minutes or 2 hours depending on the results of verification made by a Local Revenue Collection Officer. Verification determines whether an applicant still has to secure clearances from various offices (CPDO, CEO/City Building Office, CHO & BFP). Processing of licenses for these applicants will take approximately 2 hours. Otherwise, only 30 minutes are required to secure a license.
Before applying for renewal of business license, firms may log on to the city government’s e-biz online facility (www.naga.gov.ph/ebusiness) to check whether they still need to secure building, zoning, fire and/or sanitary inspection clearances before their applications can be processed. E-biz online connects firms to the city’s unified business tracking system which contains information on the results of inspections done by various offices during the previous year.
