Dear eFOI user,
Mabuhay!
Thank you for utilizing the eFOI portal (www.foi.gov.ph) and exercising your right to information under Executive Order No. 2, s. 2016 on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.
After careful consideration, we resolve to deny your request due to the reason that Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) and Other Relevant Personal Information is considered a piece of Sensitive Personal Information that is bounded by Republic Act (RA) No. 10173 or the Data Privacy Act of 2012. You may do any of the following:
Online Verification:
· Through the Online Registration and Update System (ORUS) TIN Verification and BIR Registered Business Status Search Facility functionality; or
· Verify your TIN from our BIR Website at https://www.bir.gov.ph through Chatbot Revie where you can do TIN Inquiry, TIN Validation or Find the RDO where you are duly registered by clicking the “RDO Finder”.
· Verify your TIN via email to [email protected]. Copies of the required form for submission may be found on the BIR website attached to the memorandum circular as Annexes “A” and “B” under Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 37-2024.
If Unsuccessful due to the volume of taxpayers availing of the facility, you may proceed to the nearest BIR RDO and ask for TIN Verification or Certification. Please bring the following:
Manual Verification at Revenue District Office (RDO):
· If the request is made through a representative, a Special Power of Attorney (SPA) of the Requestor together with Any Government Issued Identification Card/s (one primary, or two secondary IDs) containing the photo and signature of both the requestor and the representative shall be presented; and
· If the requestor is a Corporation, a Board Resolution or Secretary Certificate shall be presented.

state the request for TIN Verification.
