How To Track Balikbayan Box Online: Website Launched By Bureau of Customs
The Philippine Bureau of Customs, BOC, has finally launched a website for all Filipinos abroad sending Balikbayan boxes to the Philippines. Tracking Balikbayan boxes now has become easier with the online tracking system that can check on the status of the packages.
The tracker contains information on all balikbayan box shipments lodged with the Bureau, including its country of origin, Bill of Lading (BL) number, name of the foreign forwarder, name of the local forwarder/broker, date entry filed, date cleared, and current status.
To track the shipment of your balikbayan box, the recipient should know the name of the forwarder and the BL number.
“This is our way of helping our kababayans find their boxes when they encounter problems. We have received several complaints from OFW families blaming BOC for lost boxes. With this tracker, the public will not be given the run-around by people responsible for delivering their balikbayan boxes,” Customs Commissioner John P. Sevilla said.
Track those boxes using the BOC Balikbayan Box Tracker.
