Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and
Net Worth (SALN)
What is SALN?
Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth is referred to as SALN. It is a declaration of an official or employee’s assets (such as real estate, automobiles, etc.), liabilities (such as loans, debts, etc.), as well as commercial and financial interests, as well as those of their spouse and any unmarried children under 18 who are still living with their parents. Article XI Section 17 of the 1987 Constitution and Section 8 of Republic Act No. 6713, otherwise known as the “Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees,” require the submission of a SALN, which includes a waiver allowing the Ombudsman or his authorized representatives to obtain documents from all appropriate government agencies that may reveal assets, liabilities, net worth, business interests, and financial connections.
Who needs to file SALN?
All public officials and employees, whether regular or under temporary status, are required to file a SALN.
