Hello, I'd like to request a list of LGU Income Classes. I saw the list from DILG's website, however, it does not seem to be updated.

Dear Tous Remulla,

Greetings!

Thank you for your request dated Nov 16, 2023 06:42:49 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.

Your request

You asked for LGU Income Classes.

Response to your request

We were able to determine that this particular information is already available online and therefore cannot be counted as a valid FOI request. You may retrieve your requested information from https://blgf.gov.ph/lgu-income-class/. The 2008 Schedule is the latest Classification being used and applied. 

President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. signed into law Republic Act (RA) No. 11964 on October 26, 2023, institutionalizing the automatic income classification of local government units (LGUs) to provide a more responsive approach to the promotion of local autonomy and to enable LGUs to realize their full economic potential.

According to the newly signed legislation, the first income reclassification of provinces, cities, and municipalities will take effect on January 1st of the immediately succeeding year following the issuance of the table of income classification by the Finance Secretary.

The Department of Finance (DOF), in coordination with the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) and in consultation with LGU Leagues, will craft the law’s implementing rules and regulations (IRR) within three months from its effectivity.

Hello po, apologies for the misunderstanding. I was referring to that list that you sent, I was mistaken to say that it was on the DILG website. That list is dated 2008, I was looking for a more recent LGU classification, if there is anything dated at least 2020 or more recent po. Thank you for your assistance!
