Accounting services in the Philippines

Updated 4 November 2026

Bookkeeping for a small business in the Philippines is quoted per month. The sources we checked put most offers between ₱3,000 and ₱15,000 a month, and businesses with many transactions pay more, up to about ₱30,000. A request on BlaBlaPrice gets you current offers from accountants in your city.

Tax and permit rules to check

The Philippines has no single business licence. A business usually holds a set of registrations and permits, and the local business permit fees in the snippets run from ₱300 to ₱1,000, depending on the barangay or location. One guide notes that permits are renewed each January. Ask your accountant which permits you need, and whether your business is VAT or non-VAT, because the bookkeeping and tax filing differ.

Season and deadlines

The climate is hot all year, so the calendar of your business matters more than the weather. Because permits renew in January, a November request gives your accountant time to clean up the books before the renewal. Ask whether filings are included in the monthly fee or billed as separate jobs.

How it is bought here

Accounting is quoted in pesos, usually as a monthly fee, and some firms charge by volume: one firm starts at ₱16,800 a month for the first 500 invoices, receipts and vouchers, then ₱5 for each extra invoice. Ask whether the firm meets clients in person or works remotely, since your city and the firm's city may differ.

What to write in the request

Say whether you are a sole proprietor, a partnership or a corporation, what kind of business it is, and how many invoices, receipts and vouchers you handle each month. Add whether you need bookkeeping once or every month, your city and your budget in pesos. Some firms also certify financial statements, so mention it if a bank or agency asks for certified statements.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe your bookkeeping needs in the request chat in your own words. The AI asks for missing details, looks through local accountants' websites and price lists, and shows the prices and firms it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, price and terms. Your contacts stay hidden until you decide to share them.
