THE Bureau of Customs (BOC) seized <\/strong>some P366 million worth of luxury vehicles discovered at a warehouse in Makati City.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to BOC Commissioner Bienvenido Rubio, among those confiscated on Valentine\u2019s Day  by the Customs Intelligence and Investigation Service at the Manila International Container Port (CIIS-MICP)  were Ferrari, Porsche, and McLaren luxury vehicles.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The seizure came just a day after the Feb. 13 operation in warehouses in Pasay City and Para\u00f1aque City, which resulted in the confiscatiom of P1.4 billion worth of luxury vehicles.<\/strong><\/p>\n

CIIS Director Verne Enciso identified the seller as ACH High-End Motor Service Center, located at No. 489 J.P. Rizal St., Makati City.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The BOC official, together with the Philippine Coast Guard\u2019s Task Force Aduana, visited the location to serve a Letter of Authority (LOA) to the shop owner or representative, to verify the legitimacy of the vehicles’ importation and ensure the correct duties and taxes had been paid.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Enciso said that initial inventory revealed a variety of luxury cars and vehicles, including a Ferrari 488 Spider, Ferrari 812 Superfast, Porsche Targa, Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG, BMW M4, Lexus LC500, Porsche Cayenne, Bentley Bentayga, Land Rover Defender, Audi RS Q8, McLaren 720S, Ford Explorer, Li Xiang L7 SUV, Abarth 595 Competizione, MV Agusta Brutale 1000RR motorcycle, and two luxury vans-Toyota Alphard.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The team temporarily padlocked and sealed the showroom and storage facility for a proper inventory by the assigned Customs examiners in the presence of CIIS, Enforcement and Security Service (ESS), barangay officials, and storage representatives.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Authorities gave the owners or those responsible for the warehouse and vehicles 15 days from the receipt of the LOAs to submit the necessary documents proving that all duties and taxes have been paid correctly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Failure to  provide valid documentation, would mean filing of charges for violation of Sections 1400 and 1401, in relation to Section 1113 of Republic Act 10863, also known as the Customs Modernization and Tariff Act (CMTA), the BOC said.<\/strong><\/p>\n
