In view of some movie layouts/ads in the newspapers that no longer
carry the movie’s classification, we wish to reiterate Section 8 of
Presidential Decree No. 1986 which states that:

“the motion picture exhibitors … shall include in all
their cinema advertisements announcements stating the classification …
of the motion picture being exhibited or advertised.”

As such, please be informed that effective immediately, all movie
layouts published in all newspapers must carry the classification of the
movie. Failure to do so may result in penalties provided for in same
decree.

For your information and compliance.

Adopted: 13 July 1998
