Computing and filing taxes can be daunting for some, especially if it’s your first time doing it yourself. Good thing there are online services and apps that can help you with your taxes in the Philippines. Check out some recommendations below.

JuanTax

First up on the list is JuanTax. Classified as a premier tax software, this app is for tax practitioners, Philippine businesses, and accounting professionals. JuanTax is boasted to be the first BIR-Accredited tax app and offers services such as JuanTax Plus and JuanTax Fast File, which allows its users to understand things such as e-filing and tax form advisories. These services also give users access to support for further questions that may come along.

Do note that Juantax requires a subscription, but the users have access to both the mobile app and the online web platform. In addition, the app features data capture for tax documents, auto-filling for said tax forms, and electronically pays tax returns through accredited bank partners. This action allows users to save time instead of entering the other details for each box manually. Plus, scanned documents are backed up in the cloud, allowing customers access to any device that has the JuanTax application.

JuanTax has an available monthly plan priced at PHP 600; its annual plan, on the other hand, is priced at PHP 6,000. Note that there are additional add-ons such as receipt and invoice captures via mobile application and Data extraction, priced at PHP 2.00 for each service.
