Summary:
The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) as of December 28,2020 released Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 7-2021 (RMC No. 7-2021) which is effective immediately. This was released to inform all concerned taxpayers that the updated version of the Alphalist Data Entry and Validation Module is now available for everyone’s use and is downloadable from the BIR website.
The new update includes the alphalist for the following BIR Forms:
