Oplan Kandado: Protect Your Business from Possible BIR Closure
Running a business comes with important tax and registration responsibilities. Failing to comply with these obligations may expose your business to penalties, administrative sanctions, and, in certain cases, the temporary suspension or closure of business operations.
Oplan Kandado is a tax enforcement program of the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) that may result in the temporary suspension or closure of businesses found to have committed certain violations of the National Internal Revenue Code (NIRC) of 1997, as amended, and applicable BIR rules and regulations, subject to the prescribed legal and administrative procedures.
A business may become subject to Oplan Kandado if the BIR determines that it has committed certain violations under the Tax Code and applicable BIR regulations, such as:
Failure to register with the BIR, when registration is required
Failure to issue the required invoices or receipts
Issuing unauthorized or unregistered invoices or receipts
Failure to file required tax returns
Substantial understatement of taxable sales, receipts, or income, when applicable under existing tax laws and regulations
Other serious violations covered by the National Internal Revenue Code and applicable BIR issuances
Each case is evaluated based on its specific facts and circumstances and is subject to the applicable enforcement procedures of the BIR.
Protect Your Business Through Proper Tax Compliance
Do not wait until tax compliance issues become more difficult to resolve.
Maintaining proper BIR registration, complying with invoicing requirements, keeping accurate books of accounts, filing the required tax returns, paying the correct taxes when due, and complying with other applicable reportorial requirements can help reduce compliance risks and keep your business in good standing with the BIR.
Proactive compliance is one of the best ways to avoid unnecessary penalties, operational disruptions, and potential enforcement actions.
