This is a reiteration of the clarification contained in the unnumbered Memorandum dated January 16, 2002 that Rule 4(a) of CAO 3-93 pertaining to “Rules and Regulations Governing the Transaction of Customs Brokers in the Subic Special Economic and Freeport Zone” which reads:

“xxx”

“Renewal of license shall be issued conditioned upon the submission of the following:

A. Clearance from the Law Division and Collection Division of the Collection District concerned that the customs broker or brokerage firm has no pending financial obligation or liability in the Bureau of Customs as of the time of the application for renewal of license.

“xxx”

The term “pending financial obligation or liability to the Bureau of Customs” refers to obligations and liabilities of customs brokers/brokerage firms and not of their importers/clients or other parties, unless the concerned broker/brokerage firm has been determined by competent authority to be solidarily liable with their clients, importers or such other parties.

Finally, this clarification applies to Collection Districts.

Adopted: 19 Feb. 2002
