Questions and Answers

Source: boi.gov.ph

1. What is the Special Investor’s Resident Program (SIRV)?

The SIRV is a program of the government in attracting foreign investments into the Philippines. The program requires investors to remit at least US$75,000 into the country and invest subject capital in viable economic activities pursuant to Book V of the Omnibus Investments Code (Executive Order No. 226, as amended).

2. Who can avail of the program?

• Any alien who is at least twenty-one (21) years of age, who meets the following qualifications:
• He has not been convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude;
• He is not afflicted with any loathsome, dangerous or contagious disease;
• He has not been institutionalized for any mental disorder or disability;
• He is willing and able to invest the amount of at least US$75,000.00 in an eligible form of
  investment; and
• He is holder of a tourist (i.e. 9(a)) visa with at least one (1) month validity

3. How does a foreign national remit his US$75,000.00 to the Philippines?

The SIRV applicant first submits a letter indicating his intention to apply for SIRV to the Incentives Administration Service of the BOI. The BOI would then prepare an endorsement letter to the accredited depository bank (i.e. Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP), Makati branch) that
the foreign national would submit to the said bank.

The SIRV applicant would be provided instructions on how to remit his money to the accredited depository bank. The bank would also assist the applicant in opening a time deposit account where the inward remittance would be deposited.

Should the inward remittance be sent through non-accredited correspondent banks, the minimum amount of remitted money should be immediately transferred to the accredited bank.

4. Can a foreign national who already invested in an existing or newly formed local corporations still be qualified to file his application under the SIRV Program?

Yes, application for SIRV of foreign investor who already made actual investment in business activities eligible under the SIRV program may be considered for evaluation subject to the following conditions:

• The foreign investor shows proofs, such as bank certifications, that he has remitted at least US$75,000.00 within the previous twelve (12) months prior to the filing of application for SIRV. If his total inward remittance within the last twelve months is less than US$75,000.00, he has to make additional inward remittances to complete the full amount. Reinvestments of income or dividends which he earned from the existing investments, which, otherwise, could have been remitted to his home country, can be considered as inward remittances provided such reinvestments were made during the last twelve months;
• He complies with the requirements provided under Book V of EO 226, as amended. The foreign investor, because of the existence of his actual investments, may be issued Indefinite SIRV right away instead of the Probationary SIRV subject to the approval of the Board.

5. Who are considered as qualified dependents of SIRV applicants?

Only the spouse and the unmarried children under 21 years of age of the SIRV applicant can be considered as qualified dependents and therefore can also apply for an SIRV.

6. What are the allowable forms of investment under the SIRV Program?

For purposes of securing an SIRV, only investments/shares of stocks in existing, new or proposed corporations shall be allowed/ accepted as eligible forms of investment:
a. Publicly- listed companies;
b. Companies engaged in areas listed in the Investment Priorities Plan (IPP) of the Board of Investments. (The IPP is a list of priority areas of economic activities which the Government promotes for investments.);
c. Companies engaged in the manufacturing and services sectors; or The companies whose activities fall in any of the following major sectoral classifications found
under the services sectoral classification lists which are based on the UN Central Product Classification shall be deemed in the service sectors for purposes of evaluating the qualification of SIRV applicants:

• Business services (such as BPO, consultancy, etc.);
• Communication services;
• Construction and related engineering services;
• Distribution services;
• Educational services;
• Environmental services;
• Financial services;
• Health related and social services;
• Tourism and travel related services;
