Are you planning to establish a small business enterprise? Are you wondering how your business can legally operate in the Philippines?
Have you heard of the word "Business Permit"? If you have a mind of a business entrepreneur and you're wondering how you can legally operate your dream business, then this article is for you
(Based on real life experience with tips and advance warning)
Registering a business is not a walk in the park. Much more if you register multiple companies!
One of the most challenging and tiring tasks in business registration is filling out numerous forms. I could no longer feel my hands! After that I also need to answer the officer of the day’s several questions regarding the business I'm applying for. And I had to go back and forth with the forms to answer her countless questions. It seems like an eternity. Good thing I was able to get all the permits.
Thank God!
Read and Double check your Forms. Always double check your filled out forms. Don't forget to reread the questions and recheck your answers. Always be ready and make sure you know the key details of the company you are registering. You wouldn’t want to go back and forth on the forms and looking for the answers as I did. It will only stress you out.
Be patient.
In transacting with government agencies, it's a known fact that lines can get long, and your patience will be tested. So be patient.
