Please read: Update as of July 11, 2015: It seems that the BIR is not already issuing a digitized TIN Card for taxpayers.
Recently, we processed a new application for registration of TIN for our new business, and the BIR has only issued us a TIN card that is printed on a cardboard. We also directly asked the OIC/Asst. RDO of RD 14-Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya, and she confirmed to us that the BIR has already stopped the issuance of a digitized TIN Card.
According to this source, the BIR hopes to roll out by year 2016 an updated Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) card that will electronically store personal data and eventually have other uses. So as of now, we expect that the BIR will only issue a TIN card that is printed in a cardboard. The requirements are still the same. Take note that the TIN card is free.
One of the important government identification cards that Filipinos must get is the TIN (Tax Identification Number) ID. This is a valid card that will never expire. Therefore, this is convenient to have. Good news is, it is easy to get a TIN ID from the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) office. Here are the steps for the application that anyone can easily follow.
Requirements
It is easy to get a TIN ID because there are a few requirements. Applicants should just bring their NSO Birth Certificate with them. Moreover, they need to bring at least one valid ID especially for those who have existing TIN already.
- Go to the local BIR office in the city or town.
- Bring birth certificate and valid ID.
- Fill up TIN application form (there are different kinds of forms, ask assistance to find the right form).
- Submit the application form at the counter. Present a valid ID or the birth certificate.
- Wait for Tax Identification Number to be given.
- Request for your TIN Card ID, which applicants are entitled to according to E.O. 98.
- Wait for the ID. If the office is not busy, it can be processed within 1 hour. However, during very busy days, applicants may need to return the next day.
Having a TIN ID is an advantage. It will let the person transact with offices, especially government ones. For questions and concerns about getting a Taxpayer’s Identiication Number (TIN) and the TIN card, they can check out the website of the BIR. They can also visit their local RDO office directly.

One blogsite says that BIR no longer issue digitized card. May I verify how current your information is ?
Hello! Do I have to bring 1×1 picture for the BIR Card? Thanks a lot!
Ilang days para makuha yung TIN ID?
Can we take a look at the new bir id please? Just like me, i dont have any id. May appointment din ako sa DFA this april so sna pwede parin kmuha ng digitized sa bir.
Ako din eh may appointment din ako same DFA this April 1 panu kaya unkc wala din ako kht among valid id
Sad to inform that BDO doesn’t honor BIR-TIN Digitized like this one as a valid ID , as of now 03-26-2015 or is it just in a particular branch.
pumunta po aqo ng BIR valenzuela malinta nag ask po aqo qong pwede mag pa digitize ng tin ang sbi nla wla daw digitize ng tin ano po tlga meron o wla need reply asap kse need qopo sa passport wla po kse aqong sss id 1to3mont pa bgo mkuha at yung voters id nmn 1to3 years need
Pag-ibig does not accept this anymore. Idk why
This should be amended… this is a misinformation as I called BIR Customer Assistance at the Main Office and I was confirmed that they have already stopped issuing Digitized BIR TIN IDs since 2000. So whoever wrote or published this should amend this post.
Can we only get a TIN ID fr the RDO where we are registered or can we get it from any BIR branch? Thanks!
can we get a TIN ID fr any branch or only fr the BIR branch where we are registered? thanks!

Hello thank you sa info kung saan kukuha. Pero follow up question: Kailangan ba sa current place of residence, hindi pwede sa city/ place of birth? Ang hirap po kasi sa case ko. Sa North Caloocan City ako nakatira pero pinanganak sa Quezon City. Ang layo kasi ng city hall ng Caloocan mula sa amin, sa Monumento pa (hindi ko pa alam kung saan dun o pano pumunta dun). Baka pwede sa QC (place of birth) ko, mas malapit sa amin?…Thanks po sa sagot
Sir yung karton yung inissue sakin kanina lang, tinanong ko kung pano maka avail nung Digitized. “Ah, wala” yung sagot dun sa BIR sakin TT San po talaga pwede mamakuha?
I just want to ask lang po kung required po ba talaga yung Valid ID ? Wala pa po kasi akong Valid id but i have Student permit frm. LTO okay lang po ba yun ? First time ko po kasi e.
valid ids may include but not limited to the ff:
1. police clearance
2. NBI clearance
3. brgy. clearance
4. postal id
5. passport
6. voter’s id
7. student id
of which can be secured by a student like you.
hi! will they get my Authenticated Birth Certificate or will they just need the photo copy and bring the original?
i suggest to bring the authenticated nso birth certificate and photocopy. if they would be asking for your authenticated copy, for reference/verification purposes only but they will return it to you as soon as the verification process has ended because not all rely on the photocopy alone, they still look for the authenticated one.
i just want to ask lang po, qng may bayad po ba pagkuha ng BIR id card? kahit my tin no. na nawala kc ung id card. .ko. please reply. .
wla po.. its free!
pde po ba akong kumuha ng tin id kahit wlng tin no#? sana po masagot niyo.
Eh anong silbe ng ID mo kung yun pinakaimportanteng tin # eh yun pa ang wala? Obviously hindi ka mabibigyan!
Kaya ka nga magdadala ng birth certificate at valid ID eh. Okay ka lang? Akala ko ba si Common Sense ka?
excuse me ang tanong eh “pde po ba akong kumuha ng tin id kahit wlng TIN NO#?”
hello ate tama po si common sense, makakakuha ka ba kung wala kang TIN NO. kaya ka nga kukuha kasi meron kana. so sa tanong ni Marcilo Rosales, malamang HINDI!
tyong mga filipinos nga naman, imbes n magtulungan. puro bash p.
You can apply first for your tin number before you can get tin id.
s eastwood ako mgwwork san ako pede kmha kng tga pasay ako?
i went to BIR RDO-039 yesterday, because i want to get an ID, but unfortunately as i ask the Guard where can i get an ID he said “wala pa pong ID, naubusan ng papel.” O_O really? Sana sinabi nila na magdala din ng PAPEL! what’s the use of the TAX that I’m paying.
may nakuha na po akong tin id,,, kaso hindi po natanggap sa DFA ang tin id ko naguguluhan kasi ako magkaiba ba yung tin ID Tsaka digitized BIR id?? please pakisagot naman ilang balik na kasi ako sa dfa dahil sa bwisit na id na yan.
tin ID and digitized ID–parang tulad lang din iyan sa SSS ID. Ung lumang SSS ID ay gawa lang sa carton–tulad ng tin ID mo, pero ngayon digitized na SSS ID, na ang card ay tulad sa ginagamit sa ATM card. Iyan ang kaibahan kaya di ina-accept ng DFA iyang tin ID mo. We had the same experience with DFA, need talaga nila ay digitized ID.
panu po ba kumuha ng digitized tin id? panu process nun? tnx sa sasagot
RDO 43-A
I applied and paid for my TIN card replacement on November 30, 2015 and told that the TIN card will be ready on the 2nd or 3rd week of December.
I asked if it’s still the carton/paper ID and they confirmed it.
More than 30 days to print a card? They said it is because they don’t have the paper/carton used for the ID’s in stock.
Out of stock? Really?!
But when I initially asked the guard on how I can replace my TIN card, he immediately pushed me back and said that BIR no longer transacts with individuals/employees and that I need to go back to my employer.
pwede po ba kung student id ang gagamitin ko sa requirements ? reply asap pls 🙂 thanks
Bakit ang BIR walang expiration ang id pero d makapag provide ng digital id buti pa ang police clearance 6mos lng pero my digital id pang kasama. Limpak limpak ang tax na nakukulekta tapos card board lng ang id nauubusan pa!! Wow na wow
hi, mg follow up sana aqo ng TIN ID ko. my email ad po ba kau sa customer service nila pra e mail qo muna bago ako pumunta ng BIR to make sure na indi sayang ang punta ko. kulang po kse aqo ng isang ID req. qo sa DFA TIN ID sana gagamitin ko. i have to submit kse before my due date.
ko* not qo*.
wag sayangin ang wikang Filipino.
Hahaha. Oo nga naman. Buti sana kung napaikli nya ung word eh same # of letters din naman. Jejemon lang. Hehe. Not unless sira un “K” nya pero hindi naman. Lol!
look at those perfectionist ? mind your own business.. ngttanong ung tao wla nman kau naitulong nmuna p kau ng dhil s “q” at “k”? are you guys EFFing serious?! kya wala asenso pinas s mga taong kgya neo.. PWE!
ay pano po kya yun eh sa pag kuha ng passport nid po ng digitized na bir id. acceptable p din ba ung sa cardboard lng
Pwedi po ba makakuha ng tin. No., bir id kahit wla pa trabaho? Thanks
Pwede po. Hingi lang ng form sa guard then mag present ng NSO birt cert at barangay clearance sa magpaprocess ng application mo. ( Form 1904 ang fifill-upan mo)
panu ba kumuha ng Digitized Tin ID. yung kulay blue ?
Pwede ba makakuha ng tin number kahit wala pang work at underage (im only 17)?
Yung bagong digitized id po ba yun na yung unified? Yun na ung ipepresent pag kinailangan ng tin id? Thanks!
Technically, magkaiba ang UMID at TIN ID kahit na nakasaad sa UMID mo ang TIN mo. Mas mabuti parin na meron ka both.

considered po ba ng BIR ang Postal ID as a valid ID?
Yes po. Any government issued ID. Even NBI clearance.
Is it okay to bring the Photocopy of the Birth certificate?
What if I don’t have any valid ID just birth certificate because I am fresh grad is school id is applicable? Thanks!

ano po itsura ng DIGITIZED BIR ID? wala po ako makitang sample nun. ang lumang BIR ID card na yellow color ay libre po. ang DIGITIZED BIR ID magkano? Salamat po.

How to authorized somebody to get TIN ID? My son is working during weekdays and he need to submit one. Can i get it for him?
anyone help po, im working here in Bahrain may TIN ID CARD n po ako dati nawala. Pwede ba ako makakuha sa Embassy dito or anyone sa family ko sa pinas ang magrequest?
is the tin id has expiration date ?
Hello John,
The TIN ID has no expiration date since the tax identification number issued by the BIR to a taxpayer will be used by such person or entity for life. You cannot have two personal TINs, having more than one TIN is considered a criminal act.
However, in the future, future tax laws or government rules may issue a new TIN ID card format (still using your taxpayer identification number) for the betterment of government services, which may also require taxpayers to follow. But this is only a speculation since most government IDs now have modern features like VISA/Mastercard capabilities.
