RMO No. 06-2001: Prescribes the policies and procedures in the establishment of the BIR Revenue Records Center and the adoption of a Records Management Program

Key points

1. Center head. The Commissioner designates the RRC Head. Within five working days from designation, the Head gives all offices whose records will be archived there his or her specimen signature.
2. Transfer approval. No records are received for storage without prior approval for transfer from the concerned head of office. Only the Assistant Commissioner, ISOS (or representative) for ISOS records, and the Regional Director and/or Administrative Division Chiefs of the Metro Manila Revenue Regions for records of the four (4) Metro Manila RRs and their district offices may transfer records.
3. Records to be archived. These are all tax returns for the years 1992 to 1996, all tax returns received by the Metro Manila RRs from 1996 to 1999, and all Revenue Data Center bank records.
4. Transport and packing. The office concerned prepares the records for transport as prescribed in Annex A of the Order. Boxes must be labeled by content and classification, and documents or equipment meant for disposal are not transferred.
