OT lng
Diba ung professionals like doctors may p.t.r.? un na ba equivalent sa tax na binabayaran nila?
Stupid.
Dapat sa City Hall at other government offices, i-post na rin nila yung kotong rates.
The PTR is a receipt indicating that the professional required to pay the privilege tax has complied with the requirement. Doctors are required to indicate the PTR number in the documents they issue in the course of the practice of their profession like the prescription. For lawyers, without them indicating their PTR in the notarized documents, pleadings, and the like would run the risk of being sanctioned. Privilege tax is paid for one to practice his profession.
That's entirely different from income tax. The recent BIR requirement of posting is for purposes of approximating the professional's income.
Ayoko. Mas mahirap magaral sa up ng law tapos same rate lang kami ng any lawyer from u-belt? **** that.

I don't think it's for the BIR to standardise rates. The lawyers provide a service so I think the DTI would be in a better position to impose standardisation of rates. However, as Ry_tower said, everybody's got different rates. Their rates would be dependent on their reputation, efficiency, overheads and clout. Im my experience, lawyers charge hourly and hours are broken down in 15-minute increments so let's say a lawyer charges P1000/hour, if I talk to the guy for five minutes, then I get charged P250 and if he writes a letter for me that takes 50 minutes to write then I get charged P1000. Of course this isn't set in stone (especially for the Philippines) and lawyers also give discounts to return clients at their discretion.
BIR has no power to standardize the rate, hindi sila DTI or DOLE. ang habol nila eh malaman ang rates ng isang professional para di sila nanghuhula kung anong tax dapat makukuha nila. gusto nila nakapaskil ang price para pag masmababa dun yun charge mo ibig sabihin di mo sinama yung tax.
as someone mentioned here, may mga undeercover mga BIR na kunwari papa consult sa doctor, pag nakapaskil na yung rate eh mas madali ma compute ni undercover kung tama yung billing sa kanya na kasama yung tax.

pati din ba mga architects and engineers kailangan mag paskil na rin ng pricelist?
Mahirap talaga, meron mga lawyers and doctors charge differently sa mga case or sickness presented kaya mahirap yung ganyan. Pinakamaganda is to get receipt for each consult. Other than that, walang pupuntahan yung sinasabi niya.

receipt for each consult? pwede pla un sir? riseta lang kasi ang binibigay.
Pwede yun, 2 months back i consulted a doctor sa st. Luke's at humingi ng receipt dahil kailangan ko sa medical insurance reimbursement. Meron naman silang OR with VAT. Nakasanayan lang kasi na hindi humihingi ng resibo at yung clinic naman hindi nagbibigay ng receipt pag hindi humingi.
