Nagpalabas na ang Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) ng utos na patawan ng buwis ang lahat ng social media influencers na malaki ang kinikita gamit ang kanilang iba’t ibang social media platforms.
Ayon sa lumabas na Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 97-2021 dated August 16, Subject: Taxation of Any Income Received by Social Media Influencers ay ipinapa-check na nito sa kanilang Revenue officers ang background, objective, Liability for Income Tax and Percentage or Value-Added Tax (Income Tax) at iba pa.
“The term ‘social media influencers’ referred to in this Circular includes all taxpayers, individuals or corporations receiving income, in cash or in kind, from any social media sites and platforms (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, Reddit, Snapchat, etc.) in exchange for services performed as bloggers, video bloggers or "vloggers" or as an influencer, in general, and from any other activities performed on such social media sites and platforms.”
May babala na ang BIR na kailangang magparehistro na ang lahat ng social media influencers.
“The social media influencers are advised to ‘voluntary and truthfully’ declare their income and pay their corresponding taxes without waiting for a formal investigation to be conducted by the BIR to avoid being liable for tax evasion and for the civil penalty of fifty percent (50%) of the tax or of the deficiency tax.”
