News Philippine Tariff Commission challenges cement duty rise

Philippine Tariff Commission challenges cement duty rise

Written by Global Cement staff 28 December 2020

Philippines: The Tariff Commission (TC) has said that it was unaware of a Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) order imposing higher-than-scheduled duties on imports of cement. The Manila Bulletin newspaper has reported that TC commissioner Ernesto Albano said that it was legally ‘impossible’ for rates to rise above the previously scheduled US$0.19/bag. The DTI order in December 2020 set a duty of US$0.20/bag in the second year of the three-year tariff scheme. Albano said, "The DTI cannot do that. The schedule has been set.” He added, “The industry should improve so the duty should go down."

The Bureau of Customs (BOC) has implemented the new rate imposed by the DTI.
