About BOC
The Bureau of Customs (BOC) is a government agency in the Philippines that is responsible for regulating and facilitating the movement of goods in and out of the country. Its primary mission is to collect revenue and enforce customs laws, regulations, and policies. The BOC is under the Department of Finance and is headed by a Commissioner, who is appointed by the President of the Philippines.
The BOC’s main functions include assessing and collecting duties, taxes, and fees on imported goods, as well as monitoring the entry and exit of goods from Philippine ports. The agency is also responsible for preventing the entry of contraband and other illegal goods, including drugs and weapons, into the country. It operates on a risk management system that employs state-of-the-art technology and intelligence gathering to identify high-risk shipments.
In addition to its core functions, the BOC also plays a vital role in promoting trade and economic development in the Philippines. It works closely with other government agencies and stakeholders to develop and implement policies and programs that foster a competitive and conducive business environment. The BOC also ensures that trade flows smoothly by minimizing bureaucratic red tape and streamlining customs procedures.
To achieve its goals, the BOC has implemented several reforms in recent years, including the adoption of an electronic customs clearance system, the implementation of a post-clearance audit program, and the establishment of a one-stop-shop for import and export processing. These reforms have helped the agency to improve its efficiency, increase revenue collection, and reduce corruption.
Overall, the Bureau of Customs plays a critical role in protecting the country’s borders, promoting trade, and contributing to economic growth. Its commitment to excellence and innovation has made it a respected and trusted institution in the Philippines and a model for customs agencies around the world.
As such, the Bureau of Customs is always looking for highly qualified and motivated individuals to join its team.
