AMLC Certificate of Registration for Real Estate Professionals in the Philippines: A Guide


Posted on February 12, 2025





Did you know that real estate professionals in the Philippines need an AMLC Certificate of Registration (COR) to comply with banking and anti-money laundering regulations? Without it, banks may delay or reject your transactions. Learn the registration process, required documents, and how to complete your AML training online to comply with banking and AML regulations.  
Why Do You Need an AMLC COR?
Real estate professionals—brokers, developers, and agents—are classified as Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs) under the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA). This means they must register with the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) to legally operate and transact with financial institutions.  
How to Register with AMLC
To get your AMLC Certificate of Registration (COR), you need to submit the following documents:
    DTI Certificate (for sole proprietors) or Articles of Incorporation (for corporations)
    Appointment of a Compliance Officer
    Notarized Deeds of Undertaking
    Other business documents required by AMLC
After successful submission via AMLC’s Online Registration System, you may receive a Provisional Certificate of Registration (PCOR) while your application is processed.
