Philippine tax for digital services

Soon we will be paying more for digital services, even internet identifier like domain names can be included, and that's a definitive VAT. In PH it's equivalent to 12%. Although, we still have to see invoice for domain names registration and renewal fees being added with VAT. You should be getting reminders from your local and international service providers to key-in your tax details, if you haven't yet done so. We must say, this is especially for those who had to directly acquire digital services with the source and not through local resellers. If you've been dealing with local resellers, your digital services may probably have been subjected with, and had added, VAT included in your payment ever since. You should be, but you have to check it.  For online local retailers, you may have been VAT registered and paying your taxes with or without that digital tax. Don't take this as an advice and ascertain it with your accountant to be sure.

Skiff's subdomain email

Skiff is an end-to-end encrypted workspace which includes  - Email service using skiff.com, or company/personal registrant owned custom domain which has been made free as well with a limited number of accounts that can be created,  - Cloud drive,  - Pages, and  - Calendar.  When using your company domain name simply follow the instructions given in your account setting.  However, if you prefer a subdomain, say, using the email address [email protected], you may need to append www, which is the subdomain you prefer to use, to the given CNAME records, there are two of them, and to illustrate it, we will use one which is, skiff1._domainkey and make sure to look completely like skiff1._domainkey.www in order for Skiff email service to recognize the configuration made with your DNS.  Not doing so will result in an error which you will see, and never displays your domain name in your account's domain configuration.
