Quezon City launches online portal for business permit application

The Quezon City 65 LGU has announced an online portal for the processing of business permits applications.

Dubbed as the Biz Easy Online Unified Business Permit Application System (OUBPAS), the online portal aims to put ease for businesses and entrepreneurs to operate in Quezon City. It is mandated under Executive Order no. 36 s. 2019 that orders the creation of Task Force for Ease of Doing Business and Automation in Quezon City.

Starting today, applicants who wish to apply for, renew, or amend their business permits are advised to go to this link to begin the process.

Submitted applications are forwarded in real-time to ancillary departments. Once the clearance is processed by said departments, the client may pay at various business centers all over Quezon City. Online payments will soon be made available. The client may also choose to have his permit delivered or through the client’s chosen courier.

“We are optimistic that this change in the way we process and issue permits will help us gain the trust of entrepreneurs to do business in the city,” Quezon City Mayor, Joy Belmonte, shared.

The latest online portal also aims to limit face-to-face interactions between citizens and city hall employees while observing strict social distancing protocol.

Along with the launch of QC: Biz Easy was the inauguration of the newly-improved Business-One-Stop-Shop (BOSS) which streamlines payments and other transactions for the city’s close to 86,000 businesses.
