Iloko is regarded by scholars as one of the eight major dialects in the Philippines, and the province of La Union is one of those prominent places where it is fluently used. This descriptive-qualitative research was conducted to determine the extent of compliance of the barangays in the fourth and fifth class municipalities of La Union to the Iloko Code, specifically Sections 10 and 11. Using a questionnaire-checklist survey, frequency and percentages were used to analyse data from 136 barangay captains and further validated by documentary analysis, interviews, and on-site observation. The study found out that the barangays are not compliant to the publication of ordinances, resolutions and regulations in Iloko (Sec.10), but they use Iloko in their internal procedures, customer service and public events (Sec 11). The main problems in compliance are complexity in understanding the Iloko Code, lack of prior consultation and lack of analysis.
