The pictures shown in this article does not even have the actual Office of the building official fee and the fire protection clearance fee as we’re still awaiting those as of writing this article.

The receipts shown in this article are all you need to pay before even reaching the office of the building official (OBO) inspectors. Once you are able to get an assessment from the OBO, then your files will be forwarded to the bureau of fire protection so they can conduct an inspection on your site, and make sure you haven’t started construction yet, otherwise you will be slapped with another forty thousand pesos violation fee for starting without the permits.

The baranggay fee of five thousand is especially notable as most baranggays’ charge only range from 800-1,800 pesos. The baranggay Bankal building permit fee of 5,000 pesos is really off the charts.
