Key points

  1. Exemption and eligibility. All locators of PEZA Special Economic Zones duly registered with PEZA are exempt from the requirements of DO No. 12-2014, as amended by DO No. 18-2014. They are eligible for accreditation as importers with the Bureau of Customs-Account Management Office (BOC-AMO), and BOC may ask PEZA for a certified list of registered locators.
  2. Documents. BOC may still require documents and information about PEZA locators before granting accreditation. Whenever possible, it obtains these from what PEZA already holds.
  3. Sanctions. PEZA locators that import goods and fail to meet the documentary requirements in the relevant customs rules face the sanctions and penalties under the Tariff and Customs Code of the Philippines, as amended, and pertinent customs laws and regulations.

Who is affected

  • Registered locators of PEZA Special Economic Zones
