Dear Mr. Tan This is with reference to your request for RAMO #1-2019 with Tracking No. BIR 180635454368 REPLY TO YOUR REQUEST: To quote some excerpts on the written reply of the Chief Frances E. Leonida of the Excise Large Taxpayers Audit Division II dated September 23, 2019: "Per evaluation on the content of the request itself if compliant with the provisions of E.O. No. 2 and Revenue Memorandum Circular No. 75-2017, the following observations were noted: 1. No contact information of the requesting party as well as valid proof of the identification or authorization was provided. Mr. Tan failed to indicate the name of the corporation he is representing considering that the Transfer Pricing Audit Guidelines applies to corporations with related party transactions; and 2. The purpose of the request was simply "For Tax Compliance on Transfer Pricing" which lacks detailed information such as whether or not the corporation he is representing is under Transfer Pricing audit. In view of your failure to comply with the abovementioned requirements, it is hereby respectfully recommended that the request for information on Transfer Pricing Audit Manual under RAMO # 1-2019 be denied." For your information and guidance. FOI Decision Maker
