BIR 1701Q: Quarterly Income Tax Return
Fill BIR 1701Q: Quarterly Income Tax Return online and download the official form as a PDF, ready to print. Every input is mapped to its printed box, so IDs, dates and amounts land digit by digit in the right cells, and a value the form cannot hold is refused with the reason instead of being printed wrong.
What you will need: For the Year, Quarter, Amended Return?, Number of Sheet/s Attached, Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), RDO Code, Taxpayer/Filer Type, Alphanumeric Tax Code (ATC), Taxpayer/Filer’s Name (Last Name, First Name, Middle Name for Individual), Registered Address, ZIP Code, Email Address.
When it is due: May 15 (Q1), August 15 (Q2), November 15 (Q3); Q4 rolled into annual 1701/1701A.
Before you file: Due on or before May 15 (1st quarter), August 15 (2nd) and November 15 (3rd). The 4th quarter goes in your annual return. File and pay with an Authorized Agent Bank (AAB) of the RDO where you are registered; where there is no AAB, with that RDO's Revenue Collection Officer. eFPS users follow eFPS deadlines. On the 8% rate, the choice cannot be changed for the year; it switches to graduated rates if your sales and other income pass PHP 3 million. Late filing or payment adds a 25% surcharge, interest and a compromise penalty.
