The R.A. 9184 IRR does not have specific stipulations for online software subscriptions, specially for products/services not available in the local market. Specifically: (1) Most service providers are foreign and will only accept credit card or paypal mode of payments which are not available in our agency; (2) Being foreign proprietors, they are also reluctant with registering through PhilGEPS; and (3) Can we request for guidance on the proper process to follow please?
