The BIR just recently launched the “SMART” PVC TIN Card for Seniors and Registered Professionals last June 20, 2016.
The event was favored by Department of Finance (DOF) Secretary Cesar V. Purisima and BIR Officials led by Commissioner Kim S. Jacinto-Henares, DCIRs Nelson M. Aspe, Lilia C. Guillermo and Celia C. King, and other officials and employees of the BIR. Initially, the production and distribution of state of the art “smart” PVC TIN Card for Senior Citizens, including BIR employees at the National Office registered with Revenue District Office (RDO) 39- South Quezon City and registered professionals of all RDOs under Revenue Region No. 8 – Makati City was prioritized.
The smart TIN card is made of PVC material, equipped with a radio frequency identification (RFID) magnetic electronic microchip with duplicate “ghost” photo print, pre-printed security micro-printing and a QR code where the taxpayer’s information could be stored, similar to those found in credit or debit cards.
The TIN Card Production Facility is located at the 4th Floor BIR Command Center.
The project was duly supported by the Millennium Challenge Account-Philippines (MCA-P) which donated the TIN Card printing machines and laptops, Pilipinas Micromatrix Technologies Inc. (PMTI) which developed the RFID SMART TIN cards and the Registration System, while Allcard Plastics Philippines Inc., provided the needed contactless card readers/writers. (mldn)
