THE COVER.

OUR COVER

The history of the Bureau of Customs is enriched with the knowledge of its illustrious past, covering five centuries of development from the Spanish, American and Commonwealth period towards the birth of a nation that seeks to magnify itself to the world. From the humble beginnings of trading with its neighboring countries in Asia and being part of the

Acapulco trade, it has continuously evolved towards an insti- tution that continuously seeks to uphold the best in customs service. The inset picture showing the pillars of the façade of the Port of Manila Building stood magnificently proud of its beginnings and its rich history as an integral part of nation building advocating the call to transform itself as it embarks on treading the straight path towards good governance. Yes- terday, today, tomorrow . . . the Philippine Customs Service has, is and will always stand tall and steadfastly face up to the challenges of the time.

i VISION

A modernized and efficient customs administration that every Filipino can trust and be proud of.

In the wake of the Typhoon Yolanda, internationally known as Haiyan, donations quickly made their way to the affected regions, as the Bureau expedited customs processing and clearance of over 500,000 kilos of relief goods and aid equipment below the 24-hour window mandated by Customs Memorandum Order 8-2013, which created the One-Stop Shops (OSS) to speed up the release of relief goods. These stations were manned 24/7 at the entry points of Tacloban, Cebu, and NAIA. As long as donations were properly consigned to the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) or any DSWD-accredited organization, the goods were exempt from import duties through a simplified and streamlined documentation and recording process. Among the minimum documentation required were letters of intent to donate; bill of Lading or airway bill; and a packing list and/or a commercial invoice.

Actual shipments included over 23,000 kilos of relief supplies from the German government; over 9,000 kilos, or 10 tons, of humanitarian goods from the government of France; over 80,000 kilos of high-energy biscuits and 81,000 kilos of aid equipment from the United Nations World Food Programme (UNDP); and 80,000 kilos of relief goods from the Embassy BOC Port of Tacloban was totally damage during the height of Typhoon Yolanda of Qatar.

Smuggling—whether by outright entry of contraband goods or technically by cheating on valuation, weight or misdeclaration—continues to fester at various ports, causing harm to local industries, manufacturers and our people, not to mention revenue loss for the government.

In 2013, the Bureau apprehended over P2.4-Billion worth of smuggled goods, consisting of highly-dutiable goods including oil, steel, tiles, gold, expensive cars, high-end international brand products, used clothing, firearms and farm commodities.

ʪʫʩʪʮʫʩʪʶ Anti-Red Tape Case Sample: Port of Subic

The Port of Subic incurred a negative deviation in collection in 2012. However the port did a complete turn-around in 2013, and has consistently exceeded its monthly target collection, ranging from 13.27% to 120.12%, much of it due to oil importation. By August 2013, the Port of Subic had already exceeded its collection target for the year. It earned an “excellent” rating from the Civil Service Commission due to the successful implementation of Republic Act (RA) 9485, or the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007. Surveys conducted on its stakeholders and transacting public garnered a similar excellent rating in Overall Client Satisfaction. The Commission on Audit reported zero findings in its Statement of Audit Suspensions, Disallowances and Charges as of June 30, 2013. They attributed this to the refresher seminars, team- building discipline, and spiritual enrichment activities— all of which have contributed to the success in Subic, and the attainment of its P1-Billion monthly collection target.
