PEZA Registration in PhilippinesMany investors and businessmen at some point choose to offshore or outsource their jobs to reduce their operational cost.

To obtain tax breaks and incentives offered by PEZA, a company must register with it and locate their operations in one of the PEZA zones, buildings, IT parks, or technology parks.
