Data from the Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) shows that 14 local government units (LGUs) in Metro Manila collected over P60 billion in revenues from business permits in 2024, a nearly 14-percent increase from 2023. This growth is attributed to the full implementation of the Electronic Business One-Stop-Shop (eBOSS) system, which allows for online application submissions, payments, and issuance of permits and licenses. Quezon City led with P23.64 billion in revenues, followed by Taguig City with P12.47 billion.
