Nagbebenta ng Yosi o Vape? BIR RR 16-2024 May Bagong Floor Price

By Jude Feliciano

Cigarettes and vape products with price tags highlighting BIR RR 16-2024 floor price rule effective 2024–2026

Ano ang BIR RR 16-2024?

Simula October 1, 2024, ipinatupad ng Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) ang Revenue Regulation (RR) 16-2024.

Layunin nito na magtakda ng floor price o minimum selling price para sa:

  • Cigarettes
  • Heated tobacco
  • Vape products (pod, salt, freebase)

Important: Kahit retailer, online seller, o sari-sari store, kasama ka sa rule na ito. Hindi lang ito para sa malalaking manufacturers.

 

Para Saan ang Floor Price?

Ginagamit ito ng BIR bilang:

  • Basehan ng tax kung kulang ang resibo
  • Pang-compute ng tamang buwis sa audit
  • Proteksyon laban sa underdeclaration

Kung mas mababa ang presyo mo sa floor price → automatic red flag kay BIR.

 

Sino ang Covered ng RR 16-2024?

Apektado lahat ng nagbebenta ng yosi o vape products, kabilang ang:

  • Manufacturers
  • Importers
  • Wholesalers
  • Retailers
  • Online sellers (Shopee, Lazada, Facebook, IG, TikTok shop)
  • Kahit sari-sari store na may paninda

 

Real-Life Example 1: Vape Pod Seller

  • Floor Price 2025: ₱78
  • Benta niya: ₱150

➡ Sa mata ng BIR: kulang ang tax base → violation.

 

Real-Life Example 2: Cigarette Seller

  • Floor Price 2025: ₱11 per pack
  • Benta niya: ₱70

➡ Automatic na below floor price → red flag agad.

 

Paano Nalalaman ng BIR?

BIR checks records, hindi hula-hula:

  • Sales invoices
  • Purchase invoices
  • POS records
  • Stock vs. sales reports

Kung wala kang invoice, gagamitin ng BIR ang floor price para i-estimate ang dapat mong bayaran.

 

Paano Ka Mahuhuli?

  • Kapag na-audit ka ng BIR
  • Kung nag-resibo ka ng mas mura kaysa floor price
  • Kapag na-check ang POS at stock records mo
  • O kung may nagsumbong

 

Penalties Kapag Below Floor Price

Kung mapatunayan, ito ang possible na parusa:

  • Fine: 10× ng kulang na tax
  • O ₱200,000–₱500,000
  • Plus kulong na 4–6 years

 

Floor Prices (Effective 2024–2026)

Cigarettes & Heated Tobacco

Vape Freebase (30ml) ₱263.73 ₱274.31 ₱285.42

 

📌 These floor prices apply starting October 1, 2024 and increase yearly by 5%.

 

Bakit Tumataas Taon-Taon?

Every year ↑ 5% ang excise tax.

Example:

  • Cigarettes: ₱58 (2024) → ₱82.11 (2025) → ₱85.81 (2026)
  • Vape Pod: ₱67 (2024) → ₱186.78 (2025) → ₱193.20 (2026)

Automatic na tataas din ang floor price taon-taon.

 

Sino Dapat Mag-file ng BIR Form 2200-T?

  • Manufacturers
  • Importers
  • Wholesalers
  • Kahit sino may hawak ng untaxed tobacco or vape products

 

FAQ: Madalas na Tanong

Q1: What if Non-VAT registered ako?
Covered ka pa rin. Floor price already includes excise + VAT. Kahit hindi ka VAT-registered, ito pa rin ang gagamitin ng BIR as tax base.

Q2: Covered ba ang online resellers?
Yes. Kahit sa Shopee, Lazada, o FB Marketplace, kung nagbebenta ka ng yosi o vape, bawal below floor price.

Q3: Same ba ito sa SRP (Suggested Retail Price)?
Hindi. Ang SRP ay galing sa manufacturer/brand, habang ang floor price ay tax reference ng BIR para maiwasan ang underdeclaration.

 

Self-Check: Apektado Ka Ba?

[ ] Nagbebenta ako ng yosi, vape, o heated tobacco
[ ] Retailer, online seller, or wholesaler ako
[ ] Hindi ko pa alam ang bagong floor price rules

Kung may check ka dito, kailangan mong i-adjust ang presyo mo ngayon pa lang.

Final Thought

Ang floor price ay hindi dagdag-gastos lang.
Ito ay tool ng BIR para masigurong tama ang binabayarang buwis.

Tanong: Ano ang pinaka-challenging part ng bagong floor price rule para sa’yo?
I-share mo ito sa kaibigan mong may tindahan o vape shop — baka hindi pa nila alam.
