New York – The Philippine Consulate General in New York (PCGNY) and Gulapa and Baclay LLP hosted a Forum on the Estate Tax Amnesty of the Philippines (Republic Act 11213) on 20 September 2019 at the Philippine Center.

While a forum on the same topic was already held on 23 July 2019, in partnership with the Philippine American Chamber of Commerce, Inc., PCGNY decided to have an installment considering the paramount importance of this piece of legislation and the “limited-time offer” of the amnesty.

All those interested to avail of the amnesty, pursuant to Republic Act 11213, are reminded to file the estate tax amnesty return on or before 14 June 2021.
