How do i know my tin number

Don’t know your TIN? Well, here are ways to know your Lost Tax Identification Number as well as verifying if it’s yours. Each one of us has a Tax Identification number to file our taxes.  When we work, sometimes the employer processes our TIN for us, but we have to fill up a form.

When we are doing business, we need to register at the RDO, and they provide us with TIN. It’s important so we should remember or keep a file of it.

1. Check your Documents or IDs

The best place to find your TIN is through your TIN ID if you have one. If not and you were previously working, try finding your old pay slips or Form 2316, which is from your old company. For those who had a business, check your 1701 or 2551 forms or a copy of your certificate of Registration (2303); your TIN is found there.

2. Call your Employer

You can contact your employer as they surely know your TIN – it’s on their record as they file taxes on your behalf. Usually, the HR, Payroll, or Accounting department has your TIN.

If you have resigned already, you can also contact your previous employer as they may retain your details in their system. If not, you can also check through the BIR.

3. Contact BIR

Prepare your details and contact BIR so that you can get your TIN. Customer Assistant Division can be contacted using the following lines:

You may go to the nearest Regional District Office where you are. You can ask the counter where you can queue to have your TIN found or verified. Make sure you bring valid ID or documents to prove that you are the owner of the number.

5. Online

Under “other E-Services” of BIR, there is eReg TIN Query. However, this is only restricted to authorized parties. It will contain your basic information, like name, birthdate, and TIN.

How do i know my tin number

Hey, I’m Lyza! I once was a person who just imagined going to places “one day” but decided to pursue my dreams. My first travel abroad was in Japan, solo, last 2018, and fell in love with the journey since. I’m aiming to visit 10 countries before turning 30 and 2 new places in the Philippines every year. Besides traveling, I love organizing trips, photography, reading, and making new friends. Follow my adventures through my Instagram.
