1.2 The BOC MISTG shall immediately amend the ACOS procedure for the computation of the CTF, particularly for the District of Cebu where the IPF component of the CTF, is computed as a variable amount based on the FOB value of the shipment.
1.3 Pending completion of the necessary amendment of the ACOS procedure for the computation of the CTF and actual collection of the CTF rates provided in CMO No. 37-2010, Customs Brokers shall continue submitting to the BOC at the ports of discharge the IEIRD (BC Form 236), together with the electronic Transit-SAD required under E-ACTS for the clearance and release of transit goods of economic and freeport zone locators. This will ensure that the BOC revenue for clearance and release of transit goods of economic and freeport zone locators shall be maintained at Php 737.00 for transit goods discharged at the MCIA and destined for MEZ-1, and Php 1, 015.00 for transit goods discharged in all other airports and seaports and destined for all economic zone and freeport zone.
1.4 When the actual CTF rates being collected at the port of discharge are already those provided in CMO 37-2010, customs brokers shall immediately discontinue the use of the IEIRD (BC Form 236) and shall only submit to the BOC at the ports of discharge the Transit-SAD (Model of Declaration 8-8) required under E-ACTS, which customs brokers shall print using bond paper (official A4 size) together with other supporting documents for the clearance and release of transit goods of their economic and Freeport zone locator-clients.
In the case of PEZA-bound goods, the printed SAD to be submitted to BOC in lieu of the IEIRD should be notarized and must be signed by the Declarant/Importer, just like accomplishing the regular IEIRD.
