PAPATAG's application for registration and all other required documents for a non-stock corporation were sent to the SEC in Mandaluyong, Manila last March 2009. After accreditation, the Certificate of Incorporation bearing the SEC official seal was signed by Mr. Benito A. Cataran, Director of the Company Registration and Monitoring Department of the Commission, on April 21, 2009.
PAPATAG is also properly registered with the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR). This registration with the two government agencies is expected to give PAPATAG actual chances at gaining legal access to government support through various means, including financial grants and fundings for various cultural projects, after the appropriate accreditation procedures of the concerned government bodies.
However, with or without these government financial support, PAPATAG as an organization has proven its independent fiscal and managerial competence in planning, organizing, and implementing quality and effective cultural and artistic projects that truly serve the Palapag community through the years.
