PACKAGE
WHAT IS AN ARTA PACKAGE?

The Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) Package is a bundle of

programs that will help the government agency be compliant to the
provisions of R.A. 11032.

Republic Act 11032 or the Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018 is an act that
aims to streamline the current systems and procedures of government services. It is the landmark law of the Duterte
administration that addresses priority number 3 of its 0+10 Point Socio-economic Agenda. This particular agenda
pertains to improving the competitiveness of and ease of doing business in the Philippines. Signed into law on 28 May
2018, the law effectively amends Republic Act 9485 or the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007.

The ARTA Package is a sign of commitment on the part of the government agency to serve the Filipino
people by providing the necessary tools and information to improve the quality of government
service.
The ARTA Package is currently available to two government
entities:

National Government Agencies (NGAs)

Local Government Units (LGUs), Highly Urbanized Cities

(HUCs)

NGAs and LGUs, particularly the HUCs, shall be the first recipients of the ARTA Package by
virtue of a Memorandum of Agreement between ARTA and the government agency or LGU
concerned.
