  2. Enhanced Customs Transit System or GPS as a Tool in International Trade Security

  3. Enhanced Customs Transit System or GPS as a Tool in International Trade Security To increase end-to-end international chain supply security by introducing a balanced approach to safeguard shipments entering or leaving the country from manipulation or interference by criminals, illegal traders, and terrorists.

  4. Enhanced Customs Transit System or GPS as a Tool in International Trade Security To develop an effective system of detection and presentation of fraud and criminality through cooperation at policy and operational levels between different law enforcement agencies (both local and international).

  5. Enhanced Customs Transit System or GPS as a Tool in International Trade Security To pursue close partnership between Customs and the compliant trading community through transparent, efficient, effective and protected cargo clearance procedures.

  6. Enhanced Customs Transit System or GPS as a Tool in International Trade Security To be compliant to the international agreements on trade facilitation and security. a. World Trade Organization Agreement b. World Customs Organization - International Agreement on the Simplification and Harmonization of Customs Procedures otherwise known as the Revised Kyoto Convention - SAFE Framework of Standard - Customs Convention on Containers (Container Security Devices)

  7. Enhanced Customs Transit System or GPS as a Tool in International Trade Security • A powerful tool to: • Enhance cargo security (prevents attempts of hijacking and diversion of cargoes. • Plug revenue leakage. • Ensure that import entries have been eventually filed in transit shipments for consumption in the Philippines through the centralized database that ECTS will generate. • Ensure proper accounting for all transit cargo and would also allow the monitoring of action taken on the cargo after it reaches the port of destination.

  8. ECTS Contribution to Transit System Efficiency • By facilitating the customs processing of transit cargo via the use of affordable and reliable technology and other best practices FEATURES (1) • Automatically Generates Transit Delivery Permit based on the electronically filed and approved Transit Permit Form. Eliminate manual preparation and printing of Boatnote

  9. ECTS Contribution to Transit System Efficiency FEATURES (2) • Secures Containers Using Seal (equip with GPS) • No need for PEZA/Customs guard to escort container from Customs Port of Discharge to PEZA zone and vice versa (ECTS ensures the availability of sealing equipment 24/7/365) • ECTS puts in place the infrastructure and controls that would enable Customs to do away with the posting of the required security bonds.

  18. Historical Timeline of ECTS Implementation July 2011 – The PUC recommended the fees which became the basis of the proposed CAO on fees submitted to DOF: - Delivery to warehouse within one (1) kilometer radius - P 750.00 or lower - Delivery to Metro Manila and nearby towns (Ex. in Cavite and in Bulacan) P 1,500.00 - Delivery to Outports (Subic, Clark, etc.) P 2,250.00

  19. Historical Timeline of ECTS Implementation July 2011 – The PUC further proposed remedial steps to lessen their cost: - All containers tagged for GPS must already be provided by a duly processed and accomplished Boat-note. (This will eradicate the petty graft and delay.) - The mandated carrier’s Bond should now be scrapped, in lieu of the use of GPS. - The current use of the telegram (with cost of Php 90.00) shall likewise be scrapped, in lieu of the use of GPS. - The current under-guarding fee (per CMO 2- 2004) shall likewise be discontinued, in lieu of the use of GPS.
