Published January 7, 2021, 3:00 PM The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has filed a motion for reconsideration before the Court of Tax Appeals (CTA) seeking to reverse a preliminary injunction over the seizure of illicit cigarettes and manufacturing equipment of GB Global Exprez Inc. operating inside the Angeles Industrial Park, Pampanga. Two Moon cigarette packs that were seized did not have the country destination, details of manufacturer, and tax stamps as proof of payment of excise tax which are required by law. The case stemmed from a raid conducted by BIR-National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Composite Team on the factory of GB Global on July 29, 2020. The court has granted GB’s request for an injunction and ordered the return of all those seized in the raid including suspected fake cigarettes supposedly for export but do not carry the destination country and the details of the manufacturer on the pack as required by law.
