Moreover, Section 185 of Regulations No. 26, otherwise known as the Revised Documentary Stamp Tax Regulations, implementing Title VII of the Tax Code, provides that conveyances of realties not in connection with a sale, to trustees or other persons without consideration are not taxable. Accordingly, the Deed of Donation is likewise not subject to the documentary stamp tax (DST) prescribed under Section 196 of the National Internal Revenue Code of 1997, as amended, but only to the DST of P15.00 2 imposed under Section 188 of the same Code. However, the donation is subject to value-added tax (VAT) since the donor is a VAT-registered real estate developer and the donated properties are deemed ordinary assets. Thus, the transfer is considered as "transaction deemed sale" pursuant to Section 106 (B) (1) of the National Internal Revenue Code of 1997, as amended, as implemented by Section 4.106-7 of Revenue Regulations (RR) No. 16-2005, as amended. This Certificate of Tax Exemption is being issued on the basis of the facts and documents as represented and submitted. However, if upon investigation, the BIR ascertains that the facts are different, then this Certificate shall be considered null and void. aTHCSE Issued this 30th day of August, 2019. (SGD.) CAESAR R.
