The Bureau of Customs PH and the Philippine Chamber of Customs Brokers, Inc. agreed to review Customs Administrative Order 01-2001, which sets legal brokerage fee rates based on shipment dutiable value.
Under CAO 01-2001, the exact professional service fees per entry are computed based on the dutiable value of the shipment, a tiered structure that has remained largely unchanged since its issuance more than two decades ago, even as trade volumes, digital systems, and the complexity of customs transactions have evolved significantly.
