BARMM & Bangsamoro Law

The Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao runs on its own organic law — R.A. 11054 — with its own government, codes, and revenue system. We advise businesses, investors, local government units, and officials working in or with BARMM on what the Organic Law actually devolves and what it does not: the powers of the Bangsamoro Government against the reserved powers of the national government, the region's share in internal revenue and its tax treatment, regional wage orders and labor standards, contracting with BARMM ministries and offices, and the transition rules carried over from ARMM. Before we answer, we read the Bangsamoro and national issuances themselves in the firm's law library, and we tell you which one we relied on.
