Key points

  1. Customs duties. The University’s importation of economic, technical and cultural books and publications for economic, technical-vocational, scientific, philosophical, historical or cultural purposes is exempt from customs duties under RA No. 10863 (Customs Modernization and Tariff Act). This requires certification by the Commission on Higher Education.
  2. Donor’s tax and donor’s deduction. Grants, bequests, endowments, donations and contributions to the University that it uses actually, exclusively and directly are exempt from Donor’s Tax. The donor may treat them as an allowable deduction from gross income under the NIRC of 1997, as amended.

Who is affected

  • Guimaras State University
  • Donors to the University
