The Philippine Association of Certified Tax Technicians, Inc. was incorporated in November 2016.
It is the only association in the Philippines that offers a local and affordable qualification, and assists business establishments and the government in strengthening the tax awareness and knowledge.
Now, PACTT is one of the very few groups in the Philippines exclusively dedicated to tax.
This is composed of business education students and professionals who aspire to become members by attending a specialized coaching program and thereupon, passing the examination. The examination is administered by the association which awards the certification.
Highlights of this dynamic, rewarding learning experience allow the members to develop strong technical qualifications and update of the latest development in taxation.
