Are you selling goods or services online to Filipino consumers? The Internet Transactions Act and its IRR now set clear rules for sellers, marketplaces, and platforms. Businesses must verify sellers, present accurate product information, remove harmful or unverified listings, manage complaints efficiently, and secure permits for regulated goods. The DTI may issue compliance and takedown orders and may blacklist non-compliant entities.

Reach AJA Law through the contact information on www.ajalaw.ph.

Tourism is vital to the economy, but when environmental laws are unevenly enforced, it can damage the very destinations that attract visitors. From weak waste management to fragile ecosystems under pressure, the challenge is not the absence of laws, but how to make them work in practice.

Are you a foreign national eyeing to work in the Philippines but not sure where to start?

You might need an Alien Employment Permit (AEP), a work permit issued by the Department of Labor and Employment that makes your employment in the Philippines legal and compliant with labor and immigration regulations.

Avoid delays or even rejection. Let AJA Law guide you through the process and help secure your AEP with confidence!

Environmental protection is not a barrier to tourism. It is what makes long-term growth possible.

Tourism can only succeed when clean waters, healthy ecosystems, and cultural landscapes are preserved. That is why the Philippines has laws in place to ensure that tourism development does not come at the cost of nature.

The Tourism Act of 2009 promotes responsible planning. The Environmental Impact Statement System requires developers of environmentally critical projects to assess risks before building. The Clean Water Act and the Solid Waste Management Act hold businesses accountable for waste and pollution. Protected areas and ecotourism zones are safeguarded under the National Integrated Protected Areas System.

When we protect the environment, we protect the future of tourism.

For questions on compliance or sustainable tourism development, message us or visit www.ajalaw.ph.

Legal issues, whether civil, criminal, or administrative or commercial, can be overwhelming, especially when dealing with complex procedures and technical jargon. In the Philippines, a competent lawyer is more than just a courtroom advocate. They are your advisor and strategic partner in contracts, negotiations, regulatory filings, and business transactions, ensuring your rights are protected, deadlines are met, and decisions are informed.

From notarizing agreements to filing pleadings, reviewing deals, or resolving disputes, your lawyer plays a vital role in safeguarding your interests. Consistent communication, legal transparency, and ethical representation are not luxuries. They are essential to building the trust and support every individual and business needs.

Language is powerful. It can include or exclude, uplift or undermine.

The Supreme Court now requires all courts to observe gender-fair language and respectful courtroom etiquette. This is a reminder that dignity, inclusion, and justice begin with how we speak.
