Angeles City files new and renewal business permits online through eBPLS. Its Citizen's Charter asks renewals for the eApplication form, barangay clearance, cedula, a Fire Safety Inspection Certificate and documents for computing your taxes. New applicants add proof of DTI, SEC or CDA registration, an occupancy permit and a lease if renting. Online processing takes three working days if you pay within that time, through Landbank's Link.BizPortal. Fees are assessed by the city.[3]

How eBPLS works, step by step
The charter describes a zero-contact process. Follow-ups go to the email you register with, so use one you check every day.[3]
- RegisterCreate and activate an account on the eBPLS link.
- Start the applicationFor renewal, enter your Business ID Number. For a new business, click New Business Application.
- UploadFill in the form and upload clear copies of your requirements.
- Choose pick-up or deliveryPick how you want the original permit and documents released, then submit.
- Watch your emailUpload any extra documents the division asks for.
- Pay and printCheck your billing statement, pay through Landbank Link.BizPortal, then print the e-copy of your permit.
Three working days, if you pay on time
The charter sets online processing at three working days if payment is made within that period. Payment goes through the Landbank online payment system: you are sent to the LBP Link.BizPortal to pay the amount due.[3]
The eBPLS portal itself says it supports Landbank account payments only.[1]
So the clock depends on you. If your Landbank access is not ready when the billing arrives, the three days run out. Set it up in December, before the January rush.
What the application form adds
The city's application form (BPLD-ABP-001, revision 33, dated 1 October 2025) lists a few items in different words. For new permits it asks for your capitalization as the basis for taxes and a BFP certification. For renewals it asks for financial statements or an ITR plus the BFP certification. It also lets you choose to pay annually, semi-annually or quarterly.[4]
Example: a small milk tea stall renewing in Angeles would send last year's monthly sales breakdown if it is a small business, plus its barangay clearance, cedula and fire safety certificate.
The LORR check and renewal timing
In December 2025 the city held briefings on compliance with laws, ordinances, rules and regulations (LORRs) for all business permit applications, new, renewal and retirement, beginning January 2026.[2]
Expect closer review of zoning, fire safety, sanitation and any special permits for your line of business. Fix gaps before you file.
The Local Government Code sets payment within the first 20 days of January and lets the city council extend it. Unless the city announces an extension, plan for 20 January.[5]
