Business in Batangas

Where Batangas businesses need working capital

Batangas suppliers serve factories, a port and a farm economy, and all three pay on their own schedules.

  • FPIP and LISP III, Santo Tomas and Tanauan

    The First Philippine Industrial Park special economic zones cover land in Santa Anastacia and San Rafael, Santo Tomas, and in Pantay Bata and Pantay Matanda, Tanauan; LISP III is also in Santo Tomas. Suppliers of parts, packaging, food and services to the locators deliver first and invoice on terms.

  • Lima Technology Center, Lipa

    The Lima economic zone spans Malvar and Lipa City, where it takes in parcels in Barangays San Lucas and Plaridel. Its locators' local suppliers face the same 30 to 90-day terms.

  • The port and energy industries around Batangas City

    Batangas International Port in Barangay Santa Clara, including the Batangas Container Terminal; the JG Summit petrochemical complex in Simlong; the Ilijan gas-fired power plant; and, at Tabangao, Shell's former refinery, now an import terminal. Contractors and suppliers to these sites work on purchase orders.

  • Lipa's coffee and farm economy

    Coffee came to Lipa in the 1700s, and Lipa families were among the first to grow kapeng barako. Lipa's farm economy also runs on fruit, poultry and livestock, and the feed, coffee and produce traders who serve it buy ahead of each harvest.

Business permit

The business permit in Batangas

In Batangas, the Mayor's permit comes from each city's business permits office.

Batangas City's BPLO takes registrations and renewals online, and at its one-stop shop the process is two steps: filing and assessment, then pay and claim. Santo Tomas's BPLO runs a year-round one-stop shop and an eBOSS portal.

Lipa's City Permits and Licensing Office added online appointments for 2026 renewals, with walk-ins taken while slots remain, and Tanauan's BPLO holds an annual one-stop shop for applications and renewals.

You don't need a permit to apply with Datung. It's one of the optional documents: add it if you have it, and we'll ask during review if we need it. Offices and online systems change, so confirm the details with the LGU before you go.
