The Bureau of Customs (BOC) collected P84.426 billion in revenues for March, surpassing its P83.237-billion target for the month by 1.4%.
The latest collection is also 5.1% higher than the P80.359 billion collected in March 2025, BOC said in a statement.
Customs commissioner Ariel Nepomuceno emphasized the importance of BOC’s collection performance, which he said translates directly into better public services, funding for infrastructure, and support for social programs that benefit millions of Filipinos.
“Ang bawat pisong nakokolekta natin ay direktang napupunta sa mga programang magpapabuti sa buhay ng ating mga kababayan. Ito ang tunay na sukatan ng aming serbisyo—isang pamahalaang may malasakit, may pananagutan, at may tunay na pakinabang para sa mamamayan,” Nepomuceno said.
(Every peso that we collect goes directly to programs for the betterment of our countrymen. This is the real gauge of our service — a government that cares, and has real use for the public.)
He also commended all collection districts and ports nationwide for their vital role in achieving the bureau’s March target.
The bureau said it will sustain this momentum through its Integrity, Accountability, and Modernization Program—ensuring transparent, efficient, and people-centered customs service for every Filipino.
The bureau will also continue to advance reforms anchored on digitalization, transparency, and ease of doing business..
The Development Budget Coordination Committee has set a P1.003 trillion revenue collection target for BOC this year, higher than the P916.7 billion target and the P934.4 billion actual collection in 2025.
