Tax Center
BIR compliance, read from your books.
Quenta computes your VAT, withholding, and income tax position continuously from the transactions you have already captured. When the deadline comes, you are confirming a packet, not starting from zero.
Estimates you confirm before filing. General information, not tax advice.
The Tax Center is part of the Quenta app - free for your 30-day trial, then included in your subscription.

Withholding, both directions
EWT you withheld, and creditable withholding you received.
EWT to remit (1601-EQ)
Expanded withholding tax you withheld from suppliers, totalled and ready to remit via the quarterly 1601-EQ.
Creditable withholding received (2307)
BIR 2307 certificates received on your sales, tracked as a credit against your income tax.
Issue 2307s to your suppliers for the quarter - one certificate per supplier, generated straight from your books.
Percentage tax for non-VAT businesses (2551Q)
Under the VAT threshold? Same continuous computation.
The Tax Center computes your quarterly percentage tax (2551Q) the same way it handles VAT - read directly from your posted sales.
A review queue that keeps the numbers honest
Every figure is one a human has actually checked.
Captured bills and exceptions land in a review queue for tax classification before they flow into your estimates - so the number you see is reviewed, not a guess.
Accountant-ready filing packets
The one that saves the day.
At filing time, download a branded, accountant-ready packet for the quarter.
VAT packet (2550Q)
A cover summary of net VAT payable plus the output and input VAT schedules.
Withholding packet (1601-EQ)
A cover summary of EWT to remit plus the EWT alphalist and the 2307s received.
Full tax report
The complete VAT + withholding report as a branded PDF, or one Excel workbook.
Then record what you filed - the confirmed figure and your BIR/eFPS reference - so the estimate becomes the recorded truth for the period.
Ready for e-invoicing before the mandate (EIS)
A head start on the BIR's Electronic Invoicing System.
The BIR's Electronic Invoicing System (RR 11-2025) is coming. Quenta helps you prepare now.
Scope check
Whether and when you are covered under RR 11-2025.
Readiness checklist
TIN on file, buyer TINs on invoices, structured invoice data.
Mandate-deadline countdown
How long you have before your covered date.
EIS-shaped invoice export
An invoice JSON export for integration prep.
Honest caveat: the official BIR EIS schema and transmission API are still being finalised, so Quenta currently exports an early, unofficial format for preparation and testing. Live transmission follows once the official schema is released. Confirm your scope under RR 11-2025 with your accountant.
FAQ
Tax Center, answered honestly.
Does Quenta file my BIR returns for me?+
No. Quenta computes filing-ready estimates and builds the packets and schedules from your books. You review, confirm, and file (via eFPS or your usual channel), then record the filed figure in Quenta. It is not auto-filing and not tax advice.
Which BIR forms does the Tax Center cover?+
VAT (2550Q), expanded withholding (1601-EQ) and 2307 certificates, percentage tax (2551Q), and a deadline calendar for income tax (1701Q, 1702Q, annual ITR) tailored to your registration.
Where do the numbers come from?+
From your posted transactions - invoices, bills, and collections you have already captured in Quenta. Nothing is re-encoded for tax.
Can it issue 2307 certificates to my suppliers?+
Yes, one certificate per supplier for the EWT you withheld in the quarter.
Is Quenta ready for BIR e-invoicing (EIS)?+
Quenta helps you get ready now - scope check, readiness checklist, and an EIS-shaped invoice export for prep. Live transmission follows the official BIR schema. Confirm your scope under RR 11-2025 with your accountant.
Is this tax advice?+
No. The figures are general information and estimates you confirm before filing. For your specific situation, work with your accountant.
