Philippines Corporate Tax Overview
The Philippines uses a tiered corporate income tax system with special rates for MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises). Standard corporations pay 25%, while qualifying MSMEs and EDR-registered companies benefit from a reduced 20% rate.
The Minimum Corporate Income Tax (MCIT) of 2% applies from the 4th taxable year onwards, ensuring minimum tax collection. Companies can choose between itemized deductions or the Optional Standard Deduction (OSD) of 40% of gross income.
Net Operating Loss Carry-Over (NOLCO) allows businesses to carry forward losses for up to 5 consecutive years, reducing future taxable income. The interest arbitrage rule limits interest expense deductions to 80% for related-party loans.
