[ LTO MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. ACL-2009-1157, May 25, 2009 ]

MEMORANDUM OF THE BUREAU OF CUSTOMS DATED MARCH 3, 2009 RE: œCMO 7-2009 - ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OF THE CERTIFICATE OF PAYMENT/CLEARANCE (E-CPC) TO THE LAND TRANSPORTATION OFFICE 



Everyone is enjoined to take note of the new policy of the Bureau of Customs provided in the above-cited BOC Memorandum specifically item number œ2  thereof, which says that:

œ2) In lieu of the Certificate of Payment document, the broker/importer has to present to LTO the official receipt issued by the Collection Division and the corresponding Import-Entry and Revenue Declaration (IERD) (among other documents that may be required by said agency for registration purposes) 

In view thereof and in preparation for the full implementation of the LTO-BOC Interconnectivity Project, stock reports of manufacturers, assemblers, and importers of motor vehicles and/or its components with its BOC-CP electronically transmitted to LTO by BOC shall no longer pass through the CPEU and can be processed directly at LTO regional offices or at the Registration Section, Central Office.

All concerned are likewise advised that all transmitted e-CPs or e-ORs bear a prefix B or R, respectively. Hence, reporting and/or retrieval of these e-CPs or e-ORs from the database should follow the same format. For example, CP number 12345 should be inputted as B12345.

For compliance.

Adopted: 25 May 2009
