THE passage of the VAT Refund Law for tourists marks a monumental shift in the way we enhance the Philippine tourism experience.
This not only elevates the country’s competitiveness as a premier destination in Asia but also adds significant value to the overall visitor journey.
By allowing tourists to enjoy tax refunds on their purchases, we send a strong message that the Philippines is ready to embrace global standards while supporting local industries and businesses.
This law is more than an economic incentive; it is an invitation for the world to experience the creativity, craftsmanship, and hospitality that make our nation unique.
We applaud our President and the Legislature for this forward-thinking legislation, which strengthens our commitment to making the Philippines a more accessible and attractive destination for the global traveler.
