“I found the vibe of Taxumo was aligned with my personal philosophy. I like teaching myself things. I taught myself how to code and do double-entry bookkeeping… The Philosophy of Taxumo: Let’s help you become compliant. It wasn’t shady. It was transparent.”

“Maganda yung website, hindi magulo. easy to navigate. Basta you enter things correctly, one click lang, nakapagfile ka na nang tama.”

“I’ve been with Taxumo for two years now… Taxumo has really helped my anxiety dealing with forms and processes I have no experience dealing with. It’s impossible to keep up [with tax guidelines] when you’re just a stressed-out-of-your-wits freelancer like me (in my case, I’m a graphic designer working with top design firms in the US.)”

File and pay taxes every quarter and annually via Taxumo
Yes. Freelancers are considered self-employed individuals or professionals under the law. They must register with the BIR, file income tax returns, and pay taxes on their earnings.
According to Section 24(B)(b) of the NIRC:
The first ₱250,000 of your annual gross income is tax-free.
Any income above ₱250,000 is taxable.
You can choose between two tax options if your total annual income is below ₱3 million (VAT threshold):
8% income tax on gross sales/receipts exceeding ₱250,000; Simpler and best for freelancers with minimal business expenses.
Graduated tax rates (0–35%) on net income (income minus allowable expenses) Suitable if you have many deductible expenses.
If your income exceeds ₱3 million, you must register as a VAT taxpayer and can no longer avail of the 8% option.
Freelancers typically file the following BIR forms:
| Purpose | Form | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Quarterly Income Tax | BIR Form 1701Q | Every quarter |
| Annual Income Tax | BIR Form 1701A (for 8% option) or 1701 (for graduated rates) | Every April 15 |
| Percentage Tax (if not using 8%) | BIR Form 2551Q | Quarterly |
| Registration | BIR Form 1901 | One-time, before starting your freelance work |
