A Brief History of Tax Research in the Philippines

Tax research in the Philippines began with the creation of the Joint Legislative Executive Tax Commission (JLETC) under Republic Act No. 2211 in 1959, supported by a dedicated Technical Staff organized in 1960.

In 1972, the Technical Staff was reorganized into the National Tax Research Center (NTRC) through Presidential Decree No. 74, placing it under the administrative supervision of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA).

In 1987, under Executive Order No. 127, the NTRC was designated as an attached agency of the Department of Finance (DOF), strengthening its role as the government’s primary tax research arm supporting fiscal policy and economic development.
