Various private education stakeholders have appealed to President Duterte to intervene as they seek to reverse the provisions in the revenue regulation of the Bureau of Internal Revenue which seeks t

o increase the tax rate of private schools.

The petition, which was posted on the Facebook page of Coordinating Council for Private Educational Associations , stated that the BIR’s latest tax regulation “directly contradicts” the provisions under the Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises Act and the Constitution. “The erroneous provision of RR 5-2021 will add a heavy additional burden to the many stakeholders of the private education sector, at a time when we are already fighting for our survival,” they added.
