[Title] => BOC sets guidelines on car importations
[Summary] => The Bureau of Customs (BOC) will issue the guidelines imposing duties and tariffs on brand-new and second-hand cars that have been imported without paying the applicable levies.
BOC commissioner Antonio Bernardo said the bureau is preparing the guidelines for owners of cars who brought their vehicles into the country direct from abroad.
According to Bernardo, the BOC is estimated to raise some P50 to P100 million worth of duties from this guideline which would require car owners to declare their imported vehicles for proper assessment.

[Summary] => The Department of Finance (DOF) said yesterday the importation of second-hand luxury vehicles through the Subic Free port should be subjected to a thorough investigation before the auctions are allowed to continue even on a limited basis.
