You may visit the nearest BIR Revenue District Office (RDO) on your request. Please bring two (2) valid government-issued I.D.s containing the photograph and signature as proof of your identity for validation purpose. Addresses and contact numbers of RDOs can be found in the BIR Website at www.bir.gov.ph homepage/contact us/directory/revenue district offices links.

You may also adopt Other Measures to ensure that Section 270 of the 1997 Tax Code, as amended, and Republic Act 10173 are not violated.
