The Land Bank of the Philippines is waiving its fees on selected online government payments, enabling Filipinos to transact with government agencies more conveniently and at a lower cost.

Base on the article published by the Landbank of the Philippines website, the program, which runs from June 1 to December 31, 2026, is part of the government’s broader response to global economic pressures and rising costs. It aims to make government transactions more convenient and affordable amid economic challenges, while promoting greater digital banking adoption.

Under this policy, Filipinos can complete person-to-government (P2G) transactions via QRPh-enabled channels without incurring additional charges. These channels include the LANDBANK Link.BizPortal for utilizing the QRPh option, QRPh standees at participating government institutions, and government agency websites where LANDBANK’s Link.BizPortal via QRPh is selected as the payment mode.

Eligible payments include fees to participating government institutions — such as selected national government agencies (NGAs), government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs), local government units (LGUs), water districts, and state universities and colleges (SUCs) — supporting faster and more convenient payments for police clearance, real property taxes, business permits, apostille certificates, and other dues.

The rollout of free government payment services complements LANDBANK’s efforts to lower transaction costs, including the recent reduction of InstaPay transfer fees from ₱15 to ₱8, effective 21 May 2026.
