Through Executive Order No. 09, Mayor Lino Cayetano is further extending the deadlines of “all business taxes, real property taxes, transfer taxes, amusement taxes and other taxes, fees, charges and other financial obligations, due and payable to the Taguig City government during the period of the enhanced community quarantine.”
The executive order specifically applies the extensions on payment of local business taxes; real property taxes; amusement taxes, and transfer and corresponding city taxes.
The order also extends to rents, charges, and other financial obligations to the city government.
It further ensures that the dues would not incur penalties, surcharges, and interests.
Last month, through Executive Order No. 04, Mayor Lino Cayetano extended the deadline to May 20 of “all business taxes, real property taxes, transfer taxes, amusement taxes and other taxes, fees, charges and other financial obligations, due and payable to the Taguig City government during the period of the enhanced community quarantine.”
The executive order implements City Ordinance No. 9 Series of 2020, signed on March 20, 2020. The ordinance authorized the city mayor to extend deadlines for taxes and other payables due to the city.
