Circular Letter No. 2026-12

The implementation of DBM SUBMIT contributes to these objectives by digitalizing an inter-agency budget transaction and establishing a standardized electronic mechanism for the submission and monitoring of requests. 4.0 SCOPE AND COVERAGE 4.1 Documents and Transactions Covered DBM SUBMIT shall initially cover the budget execution-related requests identified in the DBM Citizen's Charter. The applicable DBM Citizen's Charter shall serve as the primary reference for determining the service or transaction covered, the documentary requirements, the client steps, the DBM agency actions, the prescribed processing time; and the responsible DBM office or unit. Documents or transactions that are not identified in the DBM Citizen's Charter as budget execution-related requests or have not been designated by the DBM for electronic submission through DBM SUBMIT shall continue to follow their existing submission procedures. 4.2 Agency Coverage The Circular Letter shall apply to government entities that transact with the DBM and are included in the DBM SUBMIT rollout, including, as applicable: 4.2.1 National Government Agencies; 4.2.2 State Universities and Colleges; 4.2.3 Government-Owned or -Controlled Corporations that are within the coverage of DBM; and 4.2.4 Other government entities specifically identified by the DBM. 4.3 Exclusion from the Coverage The budget execution-related requests of Local Government Units (LGUs) will not be covered by DBM SUBMIT and will remain subject to the existing process implemented, such as Ugnayang Bayan Portal (UBP) and the Document Management System (DMS) of DBM.
