Triple I
A representative office in the Philippines is a cost-effective way for foreign companies to establish presence without engaging in direct sales. It serves as a liaison between the head office and local clients or partners, focusing on market research, promotion, and coordination. This setup cannot earn income locally but can strengthen brand visibility and customer relationships. It’s ideal for businesses exploring opportunities before full market entry. Registration with the SEC is required, along with proof of the parent company’s financial stability. By establishing a representative office, companies can strategically assess the Philippine market while minimizing operational and compliance risks.
