BIR Announces Direct Email Channel for LOA Concerns: What Philippine Businesses Need to Know
Published Date: December 08, 2025
Published By: Jac Cantos, Upcloud Accounting
Following the recent BIR audit suspension under RMC 107-2025, the Bureau of Internal Revenue has released a new Public Advisory, introducing a direct email channel for businesses to report concerns related to Letters of Authority (LOAs) and Mission Orders (MOs).
You can find a full breakdown of the audit suspension, what's covered, and what PH businesses should prepare for in our previous article: BIR audit suspension under RMC 107-2025.
What’s New: Direct Line to the Commissioner
To support its ongoing audit reforms and ensure transparency, the BIR now encourages taxpayers to send complaints, irregularities, or questions related to audits and LOAs directly to:
This includes issues such as:
Duplicate, expired, or unserved LOAs
Irregular audit practices
Unclear requests from field officers
Any concerns related to field audit activities
The Office of the Commissioner will review submissions as part of the nationwide effort to strengthen internal controls and ensure proper implementation of the audit suspension.
Why This Matters for PH Businesses
The new email channel reinforces the government’s direction toward:
Clearer audit processes
Better taxpayer protection
Stronger accountability within the BIR
More predictable compliance during the audit freeze
This update is part of the broader reform initiative we explained in our previous article on RMC 107-2025. If your business is currently dealing with an LOA or audit notice, now is a good time to review its status and raise any concerns directly through the official channel.
