The answer is all flights except scheduled RPT should advise POB on taxi, and also when entering CTA from OCTA (if you stay in CTA, you generally don't need to advise POB because it can be obtained from the previous sector).

The reference is AIP ENR 1.1 4.3.2
i thought it was only IFR flights other than RPT that had to report POB? VFR flights should never say POB in taxi calls at C,D or GAAP, and certainly not class G.

at GAAPs i have often been asked for POB (which is not a required element of the call) when obtaining VFR clearances.

there is also no requirement to report POB on first contact with approach control VFR or IFR as far as i know.

i'm happy to be corrected by way of a reference.....
