The City Government of Panabo has launched its simplified business registration process with the Business One Stop Shop (BOSS) located at the Ground Floor Lobby of the City Hall last January 3, 2017.
According to Business Permits and Licensing Officer, Juliet S. Nacario, the old 5-step procedure has been reduced to three (3) easy steps in order for business renewal applicants to acquire their permits within the day.
New applicants, she added can acquire their permits within two (2) working days, based on the Joint Memorandum Circular 2016 issued by the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG).
“Dati, 5 steps ni atong BOSS pero karun 3 steps nalang. Pero ang pag release sa permit, depende pud sa client. One (1) day for business renewal, and two (2) days for new business permits,” Nacario said.
With the new BOSS procedure, applicants will only have to file their application at the Licensing Section, pay corresponding fees at the Treasury Office, and claim the permit at the Licensing Office.
She added that during weekdays, they extend services until 7pm and on Saturdays from 8am to 5pm until January 20, 2017.
Moreover, Nacario encouraged the public to process their permits on or before the deadline to avoid corresponding penalties.
For inquiries, the Business and Licensing Office can be reached at (084) 628-8227. (Vikki J. Amorio – CIO Panabo)
