Kung isa kang Airbnb host sa Pilipinas, alam mong hindi lang bookings at reviews ang kailangan tutukan. Kailangan mo ring i-manage ang income mo nang tama—lalo na pagdating sa buwis.
Kung nakatanggap ka kamakailan ng notice mula sa Airbnb tungkol sa tax reporting at service fees, at hindi ka sigurado kung paano ito nakaapekto sa BIR filings mo, huwag mag-alala.
Dito sa guide na ito, malalaman mo:
- Ano ang Airbnb service fees at paano ito makaapekto sa iyong income
- Anong mga buwis ang dapat mong bayaran at kailan
- Paano akma ang Airbnb income mo sa tax regulations ng BIR
- At paano ka matutulungan ng Tax Assist PH para hassle-free ang compliance mo
Dapat ba akong magbayad ng buwis bilang Airbnb host?
Oo. Ayon sa BIR, kung kumikita ka sa Airbnb, kahit isa lang ang unit mo o extra room sa bahay, kinokonsidera ito bilang business income.
Basic BIR Compliance Checklist:
- Magparehistro sa BIR bilang self-employed
- Kumuha ng Certificate of Registration (Form 2303)
- Gumamit ng Books of Accounts (manual o computerized)
- Mag-issue ng OR or invoice kung VAT-registered
- Mag-file ng monthly, quarterly, at annual returns
Hindi ka exempt kahit part-time lang ang hosting mo.
Ano ang Airbnb Service Fee at Pwede ba itong ibawas sa buwis?
Ang Airbnb service fee ay ang binabayad ng host sa Airbnb para magamit ang platform. Automatic itong kinakaltas bago mo matanggap ang payout mo.
May dalawang (2) fee models si Airbnb:
- Split-Fee Model – Host pays ~3%, guest pays ~14%
- Host-Only Fee – Host pays 14–16%, walang charge sa guest
Ayon sa Airbnb documentation at tax guidance, ang service fee ay pwedeng ituring bilang deductible business expense.
Halimbawa:
- Gross booking: ₱100,000
- Airbnb service fee: ₱10,000
- Net payout: ₱90,000
- Taxable income = ₱100,000
- Deductible expense = ₱10,000
Kailangan lang maayos ang documentation:
- Airbnb payout reports
- Breakdown ng service fees
- Proof of remittance or transaction logs
Anong buwis ang dapat bayaran? (Airbnb Taxes and Fees Overview)
Income Tax
Kung ang kita mo ay lagpas ₱250,000 kada taon, kailangan mo nang magbayad ng income tax.
May dalawang option:
- Graduated rate (15% to 35%)
- 8% flat rate (kung hindi lalampas sa ₱3M ang gross annual income)
Note: Ang 8% option ay exempt na sa Percentage Tax.
Percentage Tax o VAT
Depende ito sa kita at presyo ng unit mo:
- Residential rent ≤ ₱15,000/mo → VAT & Percentage Tax Exempt
- Rent > ₱15,000/mo, annual gross ≤ ₱3M → 3% Percentage Tax
- Annual gross > ₱3M → Subject sa 12% VAT
Kapag VAT-registered ka:
- Kailangan mag-issue ng VAT-registered invoice
- Mag-file ng BIR Form 2550Q (quarterly VAT return)
Local Business Taxes
Bukod sa national taxes, kailangan mo rin ng business permit mula sa LGU kung nasaan ang unit mo.
Kasama sa local obligations:
- Mayor’s Permit / Business Permit
- Local Business Tax (LBT)
- Barangay Clearance / Zoning / Fire Safety
Iba-iba per city, pero karamihan ay nire-renew tuwing January.
