Freelancers DIY BIR Registration and BIR Tax Compliance Guide

 

GA Consulting’s mission is to empower Freelancers Through Simple & Stress-free Tax Compliance. With this, we are constantly providing resources for freelancers to be able to comply with the BIR. One of our guides is this DIY eBook.

This is the 4th Edition already. The Ultimate DIY BIR Tax Compliance Guide for Freelancers first edition is the 2021 guide, and it was first released in November 2020. We keep on updating this guide as from time to time and the nature of taxation itself. There are some updates and improvements with Freelancers BIR Registration and Freelancers Tax Compliance.

The guide already both covered the Freelancers BIR Registration and Freelancers BIR Tax Compliance. We make the guide as simple as possible, but please let us know how to make it better for the 2025 edition.

Yes, there may be some instances that you will be stuck in some part of the guide. That’s why we have a community called Freelancers BIR Tax Compliance Support Group that you can join to ask your questions and concerns. Please join, it’s free!

To make your life easier, especially for freelancers that are more into visual guides. We also provide a quarterly income tax return filing guide for freelancers. It is posted in our YouTube channel, so make sure to subscribe to be updated.
