In an administrative order signed by BIR Commissioner Caesar R. Dulay, the new offices came from the splitting of Makati into Revenue Region No. 8A and 8B and Quezon City into Revenue Region No. 7A and 7B with the district offices located outside the two cities forming the new regions.
The Makati Revenue Region No.7B will be composed of revenue district offices of Mandaluyong, San Juan, Pasig, Marikina, and Cainta/Taytay.
Likewise, Revenue Region No.8B will cover the districts of Taguig, Pasay, Paranaque, Las Pinas, and Muntinlupa.
It was learned the BIR has acquired the 10 top floors of 36-story Export Plaza Building at the corner of Pedro Gil Avenue and Chino Roces Avenue in Makati to house the Revenue Region No. 8B.
The BIR management is still negotiating with a building owner along Ortigas Avenue in Pasig to house the new Quezon City region.
According to records, the Quezon City revenue region is tasked this year to raise P173 billion, while the Makati region, P229 billion.
The new regional offices will be operational starting next month to further enhance the tax administration and collection machinery of the agency.
