Philippines Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Philippines company register data is filed annually on the General Information Sheet (GIS) with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Revised Corporation Code, publicly requestable and showing directors, officers, and stockholdings. Beneficial ownership now runs through its own channel, HARBOR (Helpful Accessible Repository for Business and Organisation Records), mandatory since 30 January 2026 under SEC Memorandum Circular No. 15 of 2025, applying a 25% general threshold, lowered to 20% for anti-money-laundering-covered persons, and 5% to 10% for holders of listed-company securities. Its access rules are not confirmed in verifiable form, unlike the GIS, which is directly requestable from the SEC.
