WHEREAS, in furtherance of the Commission’s digital transformation initiatives and to promote regulatory efficiency and sustainability, it is necessary to implement a paperless filing system for select amendment applications through the eAMEND Portal;

NOW, THEREFORE, the Commission hereby issues the following guidelines:

¹ Section 5(f) of RA 8792 provides:
"Electronic document refers to information or the representation of information, data, figures, symbols or other modes of written expression, described or however represented, by which a right is established or an obligation extinguished, or by which a fact may be proved and affirmed, which is received, recorded, transmitted, stored, processed, retrieved or produced electronically."

² Section 5(c) of RA 8792 provides:
"Electronic data message refers to information generated, sent, received or stored by electronic, optical or similar means."

³ SECTION 2 of A.M. No. 01-7-01-SC provides:
"Admissibility. — An electronic document is admissible in evidence if it complies with the rules on admissibility prescribed by the Rules of Court and related laws and is authenticated in the manner prescribed by these Rules"

Section 1. Supplemental Application. This Memorandum Circular supplements existing rules governing amendment applications filed through the eAMEND Portal.

Amendment applications not covered by this Circular shall continue to be governed by existing rules and procedures, including the submission of hard copies of amendment documents where applicable.

Section 2. Amendment Applications Eligible for Paperless Filing. Paperless filing shall apply only to amendment applications involving amendments to the following provisions or a combination thereof:

A. Articles of Incorporation

Prefatory Clause;
Change in the Principal Office Address;
Term of Existence;
Increase or Decrease in the Number of the Board of Directors/Trustees; and
Fiscal Year for One Person Corporations (“OPCs”).

B. By-Laws

Date of Annual Meeting of the Stockholders/Members; and
Fiscal Year.

Applications involving amendments not listed above shall not qualify for paperless filing and shall be processed under the existing procedures requiring submission of hard copies. The Commission may expand the coverage of amendment applications eligible for paperless filing, as may be deemed appropriate.

Section 3. Optional Nature of Paperless Filing. The paperless filing under this Circular is optional and not mandatory. Corporations may still choose to file through Simple Processing or Regular Processing, pursuant to MC 3, S. 2026, which still requires the submission of the hard copies of the amendment documents.

The paperless filing shall be without prejudice to the Commission’s authority to require compliance with existing procedures, when appropriate.

Section 4. Documentary Requirements. Applicants shall upload the following in PDF format with a maximum file size of twenty-five (25) megabytes (mb) for each document, through the eAMEND Portal:

System-generated/downloaded Cover Sheet for Amendment;
Amended Articles of Incorporation and/or Amended By-Laws
System-generated/downloaded, signed and notarized or apostilled/authenticated (if signed and executed outside the Philippines) Amendment Form (Annex “A”, “A-1”, “A-2”, “B”, “B-1”, “B-2” and “B-3”);
Notarized Secretary’s Certificate and Undertaking (Annex “C”);
Monitoring Clearance or Affidavit of Undertaking in lieu thereof, if applicable; and
Certification or favorable endorsement from appropriate government agency or SEC department, if required.

Section 5. eSECURE and Credentialing. The Authorized Representative and Corporate Secretary shall ensure the creation of an Electronic SEC Universal Registration Environment (“eSECURE”) account and shall undergo credentialing to ensure the security and authenticity of the user’s identity.

As part of the Commission’s electronic Know-Your-Customer (“eKYC”) process, the SEC may collect and process personal information from the Corporate Secretary and capture a live photo.

Section 6. Upfront Payment. Applicants shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of the assessed filing fees prior to processing.

The system shall generate a Payment Assessment Form (“PAF”). Payment must be completed within ten (10) calendar days from issuance. Failure to complete payment within the prescribed period shall result in the automatic purging of the application from the system.

Upon confirmation of payment, the application shall be assigned to the appropriate Specialist/Processor for evaluation.

Section 7. QR and Notarization. All system-generated Amendment Forms issued through the eAMEND Portal shall contain a unique Quick Response (“QR”) Code.

The QR Code shall serve as a digital identifier corresponding to the specific amendment application and shall enable traceability, monitoring, and verification.

Notwithstanding the electronic submission of documents through the eAMEND Portal, the Amendment Form and documentary requirements, where applicable, shall remain subject to notarization, which shall ensure the authenticity of signatures and the due execution of the amendment documents.

Section 8. Post-Evaluation, Verification, and Inspection. Applications approved under the paperless filing system shall remain subject to verification, inspection, and audit by the Commission.

The Commission shall conduct random post-evaluation of approved amendment applications to ensure that the Corporation (a) Maintains and safeguards the original signed and notarized documents, and (b) Complies with the undertakings made in connection with the filing.

For this purpose, the Commission may require the corporation to present the original signed and notarized documents corresponding to the uploaded amendment documents.

Failure to comply with such directive may constitute a violation of this Circular and the undertakings executed in connection with the amendment application.

Section 9. Effect of Electronic Filing. Documents submitted through the eAMEND Portal pursuant to this Circular, including scanned copies of signed and notarized amendment documents, shall be recognized by the Commission as valid electronic submissions for purposes of processing amendment applications.

Such electronic submissions shall have the same legal effect as the submission of hard copies, subject to verification by the Commission.

The submission of electronic documents through the eAMEND Portal shall constitute a representation by the applicant that the uploaded documents are true and faithful copies of the original signed documents maintained in the corporate records of the corporation.

Section 10. Violation. Any of the following acts shall constitute a violation of this Circular:

a. Misrepresentation in the Notarized Secretary’s Certificate and Undertaking (Annex “C”); b. Submission of falsified or inaccurate documents through the eAMEND Portal;
c. Failure to comply with the undertakings contained in the Notarized Secretary’s Certificate and Undertaking (Annex “C”); and
d. Failure to comply with lawful directives of the Commission to present original documents.

The Commission may impose any or all of the following sanctions:

a. Revocation or cancellation of the approved amendment; b. Disqualification of the corporation from availing of paperless filing through the eAMEND Portal;
c. Administrative sanctions against the responsible Corporate Secretary or officers; and
d. Referral for appropriate civil or criminal action when warranted.

Section 11. Penalties. Failure to comply with a lawful directive of the Commission to present the original signed and notarized amendment documents within fifteen (15) calendar days from receipt of such directive shall subject the corporation to a penalty of Twenty Thousand Pesos (PHP20,000.00) and/or shall result in the revocation of the corporation’s amendment application, without prejudice to other administrative, civil, or criminal liabilities under applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

In case of discrepancy, the Commission shall require the corporation to correct the same through the filing of a Petition for Correction.

Section 12. Secretary’s Certificate with Affidavit of Undertaking. All applications covered under this Circular shall be supported by a separate duly signed and notarized Secretary’s Certificate with Undertaking executed by the Corporate Secretary.

The Secretary’s Certificate with Undertaking shall:

Attest that all required Directors/Trustees personally signed the amendment documents;
Confirm that the Corporate Secretary personally signed the documents;
Confirm that uploaded PDFs are true and faithful scanned copies of the original signed documents;
Undertake safekeeping of the originals by the Office of the Corporate Secretary;
Undertake turnover and presentation of original documents upon lawful directive; and
Acknowledge personal responsibility and liability for falsification or misrepresentation.

Failure to upload the required Secretary’s Certificate with Undertaking shall render the application incomplete.

EFFECTIVITY. This Memorandum Circular shall take effect after immediately after its publication.

Done this 17 July 2026 in Makati City, Philippines.
