DUMAGUETE CITY, Negros Oriental, Nov. 30 (PIA) -- The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Bacolod Extension Office has extended the Over The Counter (OTC) payments for all transactions until Dec. 31.

The SEC Bacolod Extension Office announced on Nov. 7 that they will only be accepting OTC payments for all transactions until Dec. 1. 

SEC Information Officer Laarni Dilag King said the extension on the deadline for OTC payments was made in order to give way for the transition from the traditional in-person mode of payment to online payment which will be carried out by the agency. 

“All payment transactions with Payment Assessment Form (PAF) shall be paid online via eSPAYSEC. To access the online payment system, go to www.sec.gov.ph, click on Online Services, and choose eSPAYSEC. A video tutorial is available to guide you step-by-step in making payments. The following mode of payments are accepted: debit and credit cards, PayMaya Wallet, and GCash,” said Dilag in reference to the online mode of payment. 

The transactions requiring PAF include processing fee for new registration, amendment, secondary license and petition, requests for certified true and plain copies, documentary stamp, requests for Certificate of Filing/ Corporate Information and Certificate of No Derogatory, payment of annual fees and penalties.
