Dear Guia Mae Villanueva,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Sep 13, 2022 01:44:19 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch,  for a copy of Presidential Decree (PD) No. 1773. 

Your FOI request is approved. I enclose a copy of PD 1773 and others as discussed below.

Please be informed that upon checking the copy of the said law in the compendium of Philippine Presidential Decrees and Other Vital Legal Documents, Volume 77 (selected pages of which are hereto attached), Official Gazette website, Supreme Court E-Library and Chan-Robles Virtual Library, we noticed that the schedule of rates for donor’s tax has some erroneous information. Hence, we suggest that you refer to the donor’s tax schedule in the attached copy of PD 1773 from CDAsia Online and Bureau of Internal Revenue’s website at https://www.bir.gov.ph/index.php/tax-information/donor-s-tax.html for your information and guidance.
