Seminar on BIR CAS for medium, large taxpayers

MANILA, Philippines — There are over 3,780 large taxpayers and many are still not compliant to the Bureau of Internal Revenue Regulation 9-2009 requiring large taxpayers to have a Computerized Accounting System (CAS). This becomes relevant also to the top 500 medium-sized provincial taxpayers in every revenue district which has the equivalent classification of a large taxpayer.

To help medium and large taxpayers regarding their compliance issues, the Center for Global Best Practices is launching a seminar titled, “BIR Computerized Accounting System Compliance for Medium and Large Taxpayers” on June 21 at the EDSA Shangri-La Hotel, Mandaluyong City.

The lecture will include discussions on the regulations and rulings, presentation of the challenges of getting BIR CAS accreditation and how to prepare for the actual system demonstration required by the BIR.

This will feature seasoned practitioner Bienvenido Constantino, whose expertise includes aligning large taxpayers’ IT-based accounting systems to comply with the regulations on CAS. He is the founder and CEO of Helix Software Technologies, an Australian IT firm specializing in cloud technologies designed for SME, large enterprises as well as for LGUs. His extensive experience includes having worked as IT project director of World Bank projects with the Commission on Audit and the Department of Energy as well as in various USAID initiatives. He finished his bachelor’s degree in accountancy from the University of the Philippines.
