Do you know that you can get a tax identification number or TIN number online? The Internet has really made it easier and more convenient for Filipinos to transact with the government, and getting a TIN number is one such example. This article will teach you how to get a TIN number online using Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) eReg.

The BIR eReg is a web application system that allows Filipinos and Philippine residents to avail of various taxpayer registration services without physically going to a BIR branch. Some of the features of the BIR eReg are the issuance of TIN online, payment of registration fees, and generation of the Certificate of Registration. The BIR eReg is fairly new so some transactions such as the payment of income taxes cannot be done online yet. We hope that such features will be available in the near future.

The following individuals can apply for an eTIN or TIN number online:

  • Self-employed individuals (such as single proprietors and professionals)
  • Mixed income earners (individuals who are both employees and single proprietors)
  • Employees
  • Individuals who are qualified under Executive Order No. 98

After securing the TIN, single proprietors and professionals are required to pay the registration fee of P500 through Authorized Agent Banks (AAB) located within the BIR Regional District Office (RDO) indicated in the email notification or through the BIR eFPS system.

How to Apply for a TIN Number Online as a Self-Employed Individual

To get a TIN number online, you will need to apply for it using the BIR eReg website. Please take note that you should only perform this registration if you have not done it before. If you have done this registration before or if you already have a TIN number, please don’t proceed. It’s illegal to register more than one TIN per individual.

Make sure that you have a valid email address as this is where the BIR will send your TIN number confirmation. I suggest that you use a Gmail email address as it’s more reliable than a Yahoo email address.

Update (May 9, 2019): The BIR eReg system is currently unavailable and inaccessible. An advisory will be released once the system becomes available. To apply for a TIN, please visit your nearest BIR regional district office.

Step 1: Visit the BIR eReg website

Open the BIR eReg website on your personal computer or mobile device.

Update: The BIR eReg system is currently down and under maintenance. Please go to the nearest BIR office to apply for a TIN.

Step 2: Fill up the online form

Enter your basic taxpayer information. Double-check each detail before pressing the Submit button.

Step 3: Wait for an email from the BIR

Sit back and relax as you await the confirmation email from the BIR. If the email doesn’t show up in your inbox, you can check the Spam folder.

That’s it! You now have your own TIN number. Be sure to keep a record of your new TIN number as you will need it whenever you gain employment or start a business. Also, don’t forget to pay the registration fee of P500 if you’re a single proprietor or a professional.

Getting a TIN Number to Open a Bank Account

If you want to open a bank account and you don’t have a TIN number yet, it’s advisable to get a TIN number from your nearest BIR RDO branch instead of applying for it online.

Based on my personal experience, you will need to secure a letter from the bank requesting a TIN number, which you will then give to the BIR RDO officer.

If you have any questions or concerns on how to get a TIN number, as well as other issues with your TIN number, please comment below.

      If that’s the case, I think wala ka ng magagawa. Tell the BIR that you’re applying for a TIN as a non-earning individual and ask for Form 1904.

        ayaw parinmagbigay ng BIR eh.. panuh iyan? sinasabi lng ng BIR rep na maghanap ka ng trabaho o magnegosyo. Walang non-earning individual sa bukabularyo niya.

      Unfortunately the online registration system is still under renovation which means that you can’t get your TIN online. But if you can’t apply for a TIN personally at the BIR, your authorized representative can do it for you using a Special Power of Attorney and your ID.
