A founder once came to us angry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her SEC papers were approved. Her BIR registration was done. But the bank refused to open her account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She couldn\u2019t understand why, until she learned she was missing two small documents:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the Barangay Clearance<\/strong> and Mayor\u2019s Permit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She had done everything right\u2026 except the one thing everyone forgets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most new business owners think once they get SEC or DTI and BIR done, they\u2019re \u201cofficial.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n They stop there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But your local government doesn\u2019t care what your SEC certificate says. You can\u2019t open a bank account, hire employees, or even print official receipts without your Barangay Clearance<\/strong> and Mayor\u2019s Permit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These are not extras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They\u2019re the final documents that allows you to start your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n People skip them because they either don\u2019t know, or assume they can handle it later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every week we meet founders who can\u2019t launch, invoice, or even renew contracts because of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They thought they were done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you get your SEC or DTI and BIR registration, head straight to your Barangay Hall<\/strong>, then to City Hall<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bring photocopies of:<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat Most Founders Miss<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
