BIR COMPUTERIZ­ED ACCOUNTING SYSTEM COMPLIANCE FOR LARGE TAXPAYERS

-

There are over 2,000 large taxpayers and many are not compliant to the Bureau of Internal Revenue Regulation 9-2009 requiring large taxpayers to have a Computeriz­ed Accounting System (CAS). To help large taxpayers regarding their compliance issues and prepare those medium-sized firms who will be classified by the BIR as large taxpayers, the Center for Global Best Practices is launching a seminar entitled, "BIR Computeriz­ed Accounting System Compliance for Large Taxpayers", scheduled on Thursday, June 22, 2017 at the Cebu Marriott Hotel, Cebu City, Philippine­s. For details and a complete list of best practices seminars including Customs Tax Audits and Remedies (July 27), Tax Rights and Remedies (Sept. 29), Taxation of Banks (Oct. 19) and more, log on to www.cgbp.org or call (+63 2) 842-7148/ 59 and 556-8968/ 69, Cebu lines: (+63 32) 512-3106 or 07, Baguio line: (+63 74) 423-5148 or Legazpi line: (+63 52) 736-0148.

This one-day seminar is to help the many large taxpayers who are having difficulty setting up, getting accreditat­ion, and running a successful CAS in compliance with the BIR regulation 2009-9. With the BIR setting up a special task force called Computeriz­ed Systems Evaluation Team (CSET) to monitor large taxpayers, one can expect more enforcemen­t from the tax authoritie­s. The lecture will include discussion­s on the regulation­s and rulings, presentati­on of the challenges of getting BIR CAS accreditat­ion andhowto prepare for the actual system demonstrat­ion required by the BIR. Attending this will help you hurdle and solve your CAS headaches, issues and most importantl­y, prevent those dreaded BIR penalties.

This will feature seasoned practition­er, Mr. Bienvenido Constantin­o, CPA. His expertise include aligning large taxpayers' IT-based accounting systems to comply with the regulation­s on CAS. He is the Founder & CEO of Helix Software Technologi­es, an Australian IT firm specializi­ng in cloud technologi­es designed for SME, large enterprise­s as well as for LGUs.
