Thank you for being truthful, practical and realistic!
Maraming Salamat po Grandpa! You got us going…discussing and opening our eyes to current and important issues. ♥️♥️♥️
Thanks grandpa for sharing,God Bless that Guy if he gets his Car back!
Thank you FOR THIS video. I'm planning to bring my Volvo xc90 2007. but according to your experience, it was a nightmare. So I decided to keep it here in Canada.
Great topic - you must have psychic abilities and read my mind on this topic. Thank you.
Very good content & discussion to get people thinking...........
I’m contemplating on transporting my car to Vietnam ( yes, not Philippines) since it goes through similar process.
I am trying to retire or transition to retiring in Vietnam. However, I do get a lot of inspiration from your videos/content!
Thank you.
Why? I myself thought about it but it's just too messy.
Heck no....never bring your car to the Philippines.....the bureau of customs will eat you alive with tariffs...
Great information!
Grandpa is obviously not a car guy. Lol😅
Good tidings grandpa vlogger. I always enjoy your vlogs and very thankful for all your advices.
Regarding your vlog on bringing your personal vehicle to the Philippines, I have high school classmate who is now a customs broker. His advice was If and unless the car that I plan to bring back home is a luxury car like BMW or Mercedes then it will not be advisable. The tariffs on vehicles will be the same as luxury vehicles.
Also he said just to recover on your tariffs it will be advisable to sell your luxury car.
Good day sir and Magandang buhay po sa inyo.
never bring BMW,just remember parts are they available in the Philippines. Do you think they have good BMW mechanics....BMW are tricky to fix and expensive because I have 4 of them..
Hi Grandpa, I was told the same thing your vehicle could not be more than 5 years old, the shipping cost would be around $3,000 US. Dollars, that was about 4 years ago. Now the price is sky hi.
I will just buy a vehicle when I get there. Thanks for sharing this video. I will be watching the comments on this video for sure. Thanks for sharing this topic.
Ask informations to a Philippine Embassy near you.
VERY Good Video 📹 👍.
I came to the conclusion long ago that shipping a car just isn't worth the trouble. But what about a classic motorcycle, in parts in different balikbayan boxes? (I'd probably need to put the frame in a shipping container.) I don't care if I could never register it for Philippine roads. I'd just keep it in my living room as an ornament.
Actually what you can do is connect 3 macho boxes together. That frame should fit I've done the triple box a few time already and have never had a problem. You do pay for 3 boxes but totally worth it. Just build a wooden frame in the boxes and fasten that frame to the wood
Highest speed limit in Davao City is like 40 mph on the highway, just another reason there is so much traffic in Davao City, most speed limit inside Davao city is like 25 mph, crazy slow.
I sold my Toyota Camry in the USA with a heavy heart , cause I relly love my Camry more than the other cars I had like Volvo, Mercedes Benz , Toyota celica etc , cause I am a senior and I am thinking of medical emergency I bought another Toyota Altis . Good I did sold my car in the USA , what you just told here , it might have happen to me. Thank you .
I heard before they go by the Kelly Blue book value, because it is accessible on the internet.
Don’t know these days if BOC uses this. Also, car should be less than 5 years old. They are imitating Singapore. Jeepney & tricycles are banned in BGC. Jeepneys used for business transport can only operate on outer perimeter of BGC . Pedicabs before was used in BGC but was banned.
Hello po! It’s even hard to buy a car in the Philippines if you’re over 65 and you’ll need a co signer for financing. Plus, the dealer have to special order and takes about 3 weeks for shipment from Thailand or Japan. I didn’t buy a car because to much hassles and I will be here only for 90 days anyway.
I read recently the jeepneys are being phased out because of the smog. Might have just been around Metro Manila.
Yes that’s true grease money is very important from corrupt people usually in government agencies and offices…
Also consider the parts for some cars. Some models of cars in the USA have a different engine in the Philippines i.e. Kia Rio has a 1.6L in the USA while the Philippines is only offered a 1.3L. When you do find the parts, then you have to import them in and there you have more customs duties just for the parts. I had a cousin who brought an Opal in, then it needed repair. The car just sat there waiting for at least a year, I still don't know if it ever got fixed.
Who brings a kia and an opel to the Philippines filipinos buy Toyota so i suggest to bring in a Toyota car
@@bankimagen9418 Just make sure the engine sizes are compatible. I have a highlander, good luck if I brought it there with it's V6.
@@flipicaneze if you are going to bring in a Highlander you need to convert it to a double cab pickup i saw an RX that was converted to pickup, You can convert it to LPG as well since gas is expensive here even diesel is the same, Highly advice to bring a truck like Tacoma or Tundra since its still legal to bring in trucks used/New but you need like 6 filipinos so that you can save on shipping container and it you need to chop it.
Like the Suzuki in Visayas or Mindanao.

we mover back here in 2015. I was thinking to ship my lexus here. once i checked it out. i found it to be a bad idea. i bought a new suv here. its a headache to bring a vehicle here. I brought no furnished either. but some of my personal stuff. shipped about 21 LBC boxes.
I checked into this shipping a vehicle to Manila from Guam, and the requirements just on the US side of the house to ship it are this the vehicle must be at least a munimum of one year old at time of shipment and not older than 5 years old. As a minimum and also i was told what i would spend to send a $27,000 vehicle which was a Jeep Compass i purchased in Jan 2021, i would be able to buy 3 of the same vehicles in Manila new.
Thanks for this video grandpa. I lost my trust when it comes to Philippine policy’s and corrupted . It all depends who you know in the Philippines. It’s sad.. but it’s true
Personally,if ever i choose to retire in the Philippines..i will
just sell all my stuffs.I rather buy a truck than a car also.Am fine with Nissan Navarra truck.Gudluck to y’all planning to bring home anything in the Philippines🇵🇭.Thanks pops..
Kung gusto niyo walang hassle mag organize kayo jan sa America ng mga magpapadala ng sasakyan pero kailangan truck kasi pwede parin mag import like Tacoma or Tundra, pwede rin SUV pero gagawing pickup yung likod, need madami para hati hati kayo sa gastusin sa shipping pero need siyang ichopchop para madeclare siya na car parts katulad ng mga multicab need niyo lang na may magassemble at magprocess ng papers sa Visayas or Mindanao.
If you are living in bgc. Everything you need is a grab ride away. Parking is very difficult. For out of town trips, rent a car with driver is available. The jeepner has no power steering. Not advisable for seniors. Also not good for high crime areas.
Most places don't have ride shares in the Philippines.
Cars are high but motor cyclcles and electric trycycles are cheap new. You can buy a new one of each for under $1800.00
OMG! Only in the Philippines…corruption galore! I give my tip to the person picking up my Balikbayan box! Those guys work hard. I even offer bottled water or Gatorade. Buying used cars in the Philippines is tricky…I found out working with Filipinos the hard way! American colleagues are much forthright and tells you the way it is…no going around the bushes like most Pinoys. Disheartening but true…just be careful and ALWAYS listen to your instincts, especially around Pinoys! Yes! Most Pinoys are good, but some are crooks…extremely passive-aggressive! Take care…♥️🙏☕️🇺🇸🇵🇭
If you know someone who is corrupt then report to the higher authorities, if you have a strong evidence. But if it is only hearsay stop destroying my country,Ok. Stay where you are, its better for you.
@@marilakay4902 ‘stop destroying your country?’ It is MY Country as well… I pay Philippine taxes! What are you talking about? I have been ruined and destroyed by corrupt Filipinos. So don’t give me a lecture! It is a democratic country…so one can give their own opinion! Obviously you are surrounded by good and honest people! Remember, NOT ALL people have the same experiences in life! When you deal with corrupt and dishonest people, even Police cannot do anything! Money talks! That’s why the Philippines is not as progressive as it should because of corruptness! Open your eyes and face reality! Like I said, NOT ALL Filipinos are bad…I have engaged with good and honest Filipino workers! Just like old times…Just know what and who you are dealing with! There are still a few good Filipino Men and women around! ♥️🤙🏼🇵🇭
Corruption is present everywhere not only in the Philippines , even in other countries and in Asean , been an expat and have experienced it myself …
Corruption is especially present in Philippines vs othe Asian countires
@@mikejones5364 That is a misconception by people who have not experienced being an expat in other Asian countries. PHL is just in the middle of the pack when it comes to corruption in Asian countries. There is a worse level of corruption in other Asian countries like Cambodia, Myanmar and Bangladesh. Corruption in PHL is about the same level as Thailand.
@@mvescuadra I only have experience in Philippines, I have seen alot of corruption, especailly via the government like mayors
My husband was us military easy to bring the car in the Philippines but now it's very hard
I was told by King Panda that importing a 5 year old car was so cost prohibitive. I wanted to bring my Xterra that was near perfect condition. So I just buy a new truck here.
Commenting on that Porsche owner maybe because he wants to bring the car with him not to drive around but keep it as a collectible after all it is a 1967 Porsche. And germany do have a speed limit if you drive on a side road and certain highway. But you right it is better to buy a car in the philippines rather than shipping your own car. Even if yours is paid up the amount of money you will be paying for taxes and Grease money. might as well buy a new car. It might be slightly higher but it will save you the headaches and pains.
the lexus dealer told me I needed to pay them $10,000 dollars just to get them to service my car. being that it is not bought here. the locals have all the angles to catch you. trust me do not bring your car here. do not buy a use car her unless you really know the person selling it. you have no idea of maintenance record of that vehicle. its not like buying in USA. I bought new and glad i did. I needed something dependable. i had a credit union in the USA to finance a new vehicle for me here. Toyota SUV.
Get a decent shipping company at the country of origin. Just by the fact that it went thru a cruise ship and not a cargo container ship. it looks like the shipper itself is engaging in a corrupt transaction. I wonder if the shipper is laundering by trying to evade the legal and correct practice of shipping personal and household goods.
Thank you
Be practical and forget about the PORMA. Buy there especially now lots of bank owned hatak.
I will be bringing my 1984 JEEP CJ to the Philippines. The reasons are many: As all things break down it is easy to work on, It's better than a JEEPNEY as it does have A/C, it's safer than a motorcycle, I can haul things in the back as I plan on exploring the Philippines, I already know what I have and it's dependable, Mines fiberglass so no rust issues, it's smaller than a full size truck, It should fit right in with the JEEP culture there, when it does break down it's not a dealer fix only item. I've checked prices on used there and the price gets super high for JUNK.
So how do you propose to take an 84 vehicle. Its more than 5 year old. Did i miss something here. Cant take anything more than 5 years old.
@@joescheller6680 The rules are constantly changing. The last I read the only requirement was that it had to be registered at least 6 months prior to it coming there.
what is the process of buying a used vehicle car in philippines, a car that was originaly from U.S? thanks i was informed i can only bring one vehicle per household which i already have a vehicle from U.S here in Philippine, now i plan on buying a car from U.S owned by a friend
Facts!
And if you file for a different title on your vehicle, but you have to file for the title on your vehicle this is only you on your vehicle and stands for you on your vehicle in definite that nobody could charge you any tax or anything on your vehicle
This is an issue that Tulfo will enjoy !!! Just send it then ask Tulfo to grill the customs!
import money, VAT, that is if they do not consider it to be abandoned at customs.
Screw The Cars Then!! I'll Just Have To Take My Yacht Across The Pacific Ocean And Through The Philippine Sea And Into Manila Bay!
I agree
Correction sir, corruption is NOT due to being poor country. In fact, those that commit corruption in the Philippines are those with money, and the government people. It’s greed that cause corruption .
Those with money feeds the poor staffs to accomplish the jobs the he or she wants to be done so greased money is used …
If you buy a used/surplus car in Philippines like a Toyota Scion XB, then Toyota dealership will not sell you parts, keep that in mind.
Gas is like 80 peso a liter last I looked in Phillipines, that about $6.50 per gallon. Gas is so high there, so is electrical, so is food like meat or green vegatable, about 4 to 6 times higher compared to USA
I bought a Nissan navarra pick up truck for $28,000 brand new in the Philippines. If i bought it here it might be around $35,000. Better buy in the Philippines
I’ll do the same thing.Btway,love to own a NNavarra too.Stay safe..Merci.
there are so many scammers when buying a used car if you respond to an ad more times then not it’s not the owner of the car people will see a car for sale and post it like it’s there’s and they get money from you as a middle man. I got discouraged and did not buy one
No ! No ! Red tape, taxes, extortion by the customs etc. I tried it back on 1996. Just by buy locally available cars, they are priced about the same as here in the USA, except for low volume or luxury cars, which are expensive in the Ph. There are unique cars available in the Ph. That we cannot obtain here in the USA
"I apologize, but I've been talking to some freight forwarders, and it seems there's a lack of trust. In your story, it appears that Ma'am used an unreliable freight forwarder, taking multiple routes, and the shipment hasn't arrived yet. Now, she's seeking help from customs, but they are asking for a bribe for her shipment. Your analysis is correct that the low customs salary may lead to corruption. She should have carefully chosen a trustworthy freight forwarder before shipping the vehicle and obtained an import permit in the Philippines to protect her rights."
Really sad Philippines still not change bureau of custom same corrupt
Everything from local barangay to national government is corrupt to the core.
The shipping cost would not be the problem. The customs duty on personal imports used to be about 100% then customs officers would need their palms greased. Personally I don’t think it would be worth the effort.
My wife and I just bought an izuzu double cab flat bed truck for commercial and farm work in the province. I think we paid around $6,000 US dollars. I can’t imagine shipping a car or truck to the Philippines, or furniture for that matter.
Isuzu car is the cheapest car and affordable for those who want to buy cash!
@@susanball7051 oh for sure, the truck is in perfect condition
@@anthonymoody2897 its really good to have a car for necessities when living in a province. I will do the same too if i will live in the Philippines for good
Oh yeah I have relatives from San Francisco, CA. they're both retired though & they shipped all there stuff including vehicles on the ship with them & took a month to get to the Philippines.
Cost them lot's of money!!!
@@gloriasarnstrom6013 my cousin and her American husband after his retirement they sold their house in LA 10 years ago and shipped their household items without a car she said they paid $20k to ship to Negros Occidental without paying extras.
Please help me confirm the Option for Retirement given
by Philippine Retirement Authority that for retiring Filipinos, they can bring back ALL of their belongings including Cars TAX FREE as a way of convincing retirees to go back home for good in the Philippines!
Contact Bureau of Customs first before you do anything.
Once you get to customs that’s when the problem begins…
A slow moving cargo ship could take 2 months to sail 18,000 kilometers.
The US dollar is very strong right now. Just buy a new car in the Philippines. We bought a top of the line Ford Territory which is equivalent to a Toyota RAV4 for about $22,000 out the door.
Was that top of the line? Automatic? Leather? All the latest gadgets?
@@mikejones5364 top of the line, leather, all safety features such as blind side monitoring, full 360 cameras and auto brake and park assist
@@richsanossian8675 That's a fair price. Is car built in China or USA?
@@mikejones5364 Toyota has had an assembly plant in Laguna since the 90s. One of the reasons locally assembled Toyota vehicles are less expensive than the US counterpart models is the cheaper cost of labor. Plus, the emission standards in PHL are not as strict as those in California.
@@mikejones5364 Chinese ford model
It is possible but it is so expensive that it would be better to buy one locally instead. Add the current inflation to make things worse.
grandpa, i would highly recommend purchasing a multi purpose vehicle. something reliable that you can use for grocery shopping and occasional travel. you will need something that's equipped with AC at least, for obvious reasons. personally, i wouldn't buy a jeep or "owner" as the locals would call it, unless you live in the province where there's less traffic. update on the porsche, it has finally arrived, inspected and released order given by the authorities, taxes to be paid tomorrow. hopefully, it'll be in my garage by tomorrow evening...fingers crossed!
That is great. Let me know how much taxes were assessed, and what value they put on the vehicle. Altogether, how much did you wind up spending (taxes and shipping). This will be good information for those who plan to do the same thing. Also, since your car (if I recall correctly) is a 1969 vintage, that means that the 5-year old or less requirement is no longer applied! Thanks for updating me.
i noticed there is Ad Veloram tax, can you explain what this is for and how its calculated. Its when you import a vehicle.
Great channel btw,. just subscribed.
This is the tax based on the value of a vehicle when you import something into the Philippines.
I am glad we don’t pay grease money here in Canada when we send the balikbayan box
How do you know? It may be part of the price you pay!
what if you really want something you can’t buy in the Philippines like an Airstream trailer?
Maybe a Kalesa will do! 😆😆😆
Buy a jeepney and customize it 😅
Some people seem to have difficulty letting go of material possessions. They're just stuff. Unless that car is named KITT, sell it and move on.
it's not about letting go stuff. I've sold my bulldozers, my guns, a shop full of tools. My JEEP is just practical. I can't find anything there to replace its usefulness. I've looked. My vehicle is paid for and it's extremely dependable. It's also so much safer than a scooter or motorcycle. I want to explore the Philippines.
It's just a car. You can easily buy another car in the Phil. Not worth the hassle shipping
Hi.. Grampa, I tell you what don't even think shipping your vehicle in the Philippines,My husband & I tried to send his SS Camaro but it will cost more money than what you paid for here in. U.S.
Too much & you don't wanna know. Just buy it there.
Not worth it...
Toyota cars in the philippines are inexpensive. Vios model sells for less than 1M. Camry about 2M.
Dont buy 2nd hand because they are not reliable. And at your age, over 60 years old, you do not
Want to worry about your car breaking down .
Sorry, not true, I bought a second hand Honda City that I have had for almost 2.5 years and is soon to round the 100k kilometers and working fine. Done some minor repairs and oil changes, but otherwise runs very well.
It depends upon the cars L .GP. 2nd hand Honda cars did not let us down as opposed to American car,Toyota and even cheap cars from Korea,thus far.
Buy cars at a reliable car dealers and you won't have problems.Car maintenance should be a must as well.
Buying a new car is not ideal as it depreciates the price after 1 month of driving.It is like throwing 1/3 of your money .
Grandpa dnt brought any car in this country...a lot of corruption is in the offing...what you know and info is correct....
Temporarily bringing the car to Philippines via a carnet de passage can be done for a low cost.
Please let us know your experience. Thank you.
How many vehicles you need to own in the Philippines? Is it worth to have 2 because of the coding restrictions?
Same thing is happening in Mexico! Coding system is not working because those who can afford two cars buy another car so that coding will not hurt them. End result is the same traffic congestion and same pollution.
Been working hard the past few months and missing your updates. What's the latest on travel, if you don't mind please?
Not much to update you on. Look like everyone is busy with the new administration. No changes that I'm aware of. Will let you know when I hear something new.
@@vloggergrandpa2707 thank you for the reply.
Rented a car (Toyota vios) for 10 days in cagayan de oro for $275 may 2022 vacation
May tanong po ako? Plano mag retire sa pinas. Kong gusto ko bumili ng car , ano ano po ang mga kailangan ko e ready na documents? Maraming Salamat po!
The guy who wrote to you was bringing a classic car more than 5 years old.
No they only tip the ones bringing the boxes, my wife tiped them 200 pesos for 14 boxes i send from usa , i paid $154.00 per box. To mail each box $154 x14 = $2156.00
Is it better to buy new, or used in the Philippines? I will be there in 2 months. Waiting to have a fiancé visa, improve for my girlfriend to the US. I want to buy car that will only be used from about 12 months and then I will have to sell.
Just buy second hand cars it's more cheaper
To be fair, shipping a car to any country is a headache.
Please Grandpa blogger! You should be roaming around Philippines! The poor people are not I repeat are not the reason of corruptions, infact , these are the real honest people . When you roam around your neighborhood or around Philippines then you will know by then that the corrupt are the rich people, government officials and famous people “NOT POOR PEOPLE”. Review your vlog about you saying poor people are the source of corruption! Apparently, you don’t we’ll anymore of your used to be your country! I can tell you are not poor but I think you have a good heart but not having a good knowledge about who are corrupt in the Philippines! Do more research and I guarantee you will agree to most of us Filipinos! Good luck Grandpa!!!
67 porsche it was a classic car, and might have a sentimental value to that person. And with it comes to taxi in philippines if you are going to place where they know there is alot of traffic they would say no to you..I usually ask them how much they want, like a special deal no meter ride.
I worked at FDOT as an highway engineer. Philippines highway design and construction are substandard although they follow the AASHTO. Therefore prone to vehicle accident or fatal.
Dude, really? Here in the US everyday someone died from vehicular accidents so you cannot say highways in the Philippines are prone to accidents that's a total BS

How is it going
Did you do it?
GMC pickup truck from saudi arabia. How much it will cost for shipping and tax? Is it worth it?
Please contact Philippine customs as this valuation could be a little bit complicated and could be subject to corupt practices in the Philippines.
Helo Grampa Vlogger, if you get approved for SRRV think you are allowed to bring $7000 worth of personal belongings. Would that include a motorcycle as personal belongings?
That is everything.
@@vloggergrandpa2707 , please clarify this SRRV Law or provision of law!
I have strongly considered doing exactly this and weighed the pro/con. After considering the "Vehicle Appropriate for the conditions present" statement, I decided none of my current US vehicles meet the criteria. The costs associated with shipping a car there greatly outweigh any benefits when you consider the kind of vehicles that are locally available in the Philippines. The roads there are tight, congested, and mostly rough outside the major cities. Take these factors into consideration over driving comfort. Cars with collision detection/warning will freak out over the scooters riding 2-3 feet from you at 30mph. I also believe the emissions control will have to be tweaked to deal with the different formula used in the Philippines. Add that all up, and I will buy a HiLux or Jimny when I'm permenently there.
Thank you for your content. It's been very helpful.

Are you in the Philippines now?
Just get rid of your old baggage and move on . You can get everything you need there for half of what you paid for it in the states and you don't have to deal with the b.s . You can get a base model 4 door hilux for less than 20k brand new. So just sell your vehicles and start fresh. I do recommend buying a truck or suv because the roads are not very good and sometimes you end up on a rap road which is usually filled with major pot holes. Used cars miraculously maintain their value according to the owners and between lack of maintenance and high mileage never devalue so don't bother looking at anything used .
Good advice….Did you finance the truck in the Philippines or through a bank in the 🇺🇸 USA?
I disagree regarding buying a used car. Just like buying Used house as well you need to do your due diligence. Also i don't have to pay luxury tax buying used car.
@@vincentgalvante8238 trucks are considered utility vehicles and not luxury cars. Unless you know the person your buying the vehicle from I wouldn't buy a used vehicle there unless you are getting it dirt cheap. If it's still under manufacturers warranty and has all the documentation that the scheduled services have been done then perhaps but people there seem to think that mileage doesn't devalue a vehicle and want big money for high mileage vehicles to the point it just makes sense to buy new . Same with motorcycles as the typical mechanic over there doesn't know what they are doing and damage more things than they fix .
@@marcrichard7251 you will first need to get established at a bank which takes several months to show you have a steady income flow. Best to pay cash if you can or put a large down payment if they will allow you to do it. Interest rates are on the high side especially if you dealer finance so best to deal with a reputable bank like Citi bank or Wells Fargo . Phillyinthephillipines did a couple of blogs on purchasing a new vehicle and he can explain it in detail.
Should I bring my laptop 💻 to the Philippines 🇵🇭? Please do a video on this Grandfather
Hahaha Hahaha
I brought a laptop from Phil to US to Phil.
It is totally fine.Just make sure it goes with your hand carry bag. If you put it in your luggage, there is a tendency it will be broken if you don't wrap it right.
With all that money you can buy 30 tricycles in the Philippines, open a business leasing the tricycles and a year latter buy a car there.
I looked into that many years ago and was advised that it"s illegal to do so. A foreigner must have a visa to do business in the Philippines and can only own a minority share. You may try to do it illegally but will run into problems. If a driver has any complaint about you the law will side against you because you are illegally profiting off a commercial vehicle. Insurance can be a problem as well. If one if your drives gets in an accident with another vehicle you are financially responsible. I have a foreigner friend who tried this. It was more headaches than it was worth. Sometimes a driver would not return the tricycle for weeks especially if they know that if you reported it to police you would get yourself in trouble. You would have no protection from the law.
Here is one story. I had a Filipino friend who owned a tricycle but was in dire financial need. He wanted to borrow P50thousand. We went to a lawyer to put the loan in a legal contract. I would not be charging interest but put his tricycle as collateral. The lawyer wrote up the contract and all was legal. My "friend" never paid back a single peso. It has gone on now for 8 years now and still nothing. After 2 years I went back to the lawyer to see about taking the tricycle which the contract listed as collateral. I could do NOTHING! because the tricycle was listed as a commercial vehicle and as a foreigner I couldn't take a commercial vehicle away from a Filipino.
Not me, ill sell IT here and just IT there🤔
It best to park ot here in usa at a close friend or realitive and go without one and buy one in a close friend or realitive name in philippines . If make a perminate resident of philippines sale car in usa and western union the money to you, ig $10 000.00 or more, use a bank to bank transaction. It ilegal in all countries to carry $10,000.00 or more in usa bonds or cash or equal value.all governments can arrest you plus take all moneys , it totally lost.
Why they want to bring their car there is their business and nobody else’s. They were just asking because they hoped you had some answers.
What happens if you decide not to pay the import taxes and just walk away?
Pls check w/ the Bureau of Import Services under DTI. I understand it has different rules on taxes for returning Filipino only if the car has been already used from country of origin, not new. The estimated time frame has to be cleared w/ the broker.
A 1967 Porsche does not go 200 mph... That car would have a hard time keeping up on highways going 80 miles an hour these days...
It's top comfortable speed is about 50 to 60 miles an hour because it is essentially a Volkswagen beetle of the same era...
I wonder with new government, if possible to import new electric motorcycle into Philippines or is Philippines not really interested in customized electric motorcycle from Asia? :-)
Oh no, in fact the Philippines is going to have a week long national holiday for new electric motorcycles starting next week. Every Philippine govt official from the barangays to manila is talking about it.

It take 3-5 months a $4500.00 plus fees $2000.00and insurance $2000.00 total $8500.00 for a pickup 3 years old. After it arrived i only be able to drive it 1 year then it be junk can not resale because it 5 years old, not legal on roads without a tag. Can not buy a tag for 5 years and older the transportation office said in iloilo where you buy your tag and register it. Thats a $20,000.00 pickup drive 1 year and it junk plus $8000.00 shipping or by a new veihecle from $1400.00 to $25000.00 , sound dumb to ship one, that only 1 way also , it double to send round trip
Oh my…I’m lost
@@TharaLetzISLANDER why lost ? It been this way since 1980. Except the 5 year veihicle law started 3 years ago. I been in philippines since 1980, i married in 1980 in philippines and i was in usa army . Im 64 now. On retirement. Plus you can not retire in philippines unless make a perminate resident. Must be approved by your wife on a 13a or the ssr visa cost from $1500.00 to $50,000.00 deposit and can not touch it unless cancel the visa and out of phippines.
@@TharaLetzISLANDER i hope you got your phippines entrance 90 day visa and in philippines paid up date on your 59 day visas legal. You can be in philippines legal 3 years only, if not a perminate resident of philippines. Or you be black listed and that means put in jail and deported to usa border and usa pays the $thousands deportation fees and puts you in usa jail untill you show a legal usa passport not expired , and show them your legal usa residence and pay your fines before released our on probation. And you be banned from philippines forever. That is black listed. It not mater what you own or children or wife in philippines. You will be banned eternal.
@@TharaLetzISLANDER also not forget it a colony of usa not a state of usa. Its province and national laws are philippines not usa. And catholic is over it all. If plan on driving in philuppines for up to 6 months and return to usa. Usa your drivers licence but they no good in philippines unless you purchass a internal drivers permit it goes with your good usa licence. It on internet called aaa insurance for a international drivers permit . Cost $20.00 only good for 6 months. If going be in philippines you need put up your usa licence and save and go get new phippines drivers licence. They have drivers edd class at a national college you can pay and take for cheaper insurance. But do not drive in phippines ilegal. It grounds for deportation .
Why would you even pay for greasing those corrupt! We don't pay that here in Canada.
Corruption will never end!
I thought Dutere was gonna clean up all the corruption? Hell there is heavy corruption in Davao city
Just buy a car in the philippines, If your retired have to pay cash or proof of income to get car financing and get part time driver its a lot easier specially in traffic
Yes but you have to buy what's available and that's not always what you want...
@@harrywalsh791 not necessarily. You can order what you want from a respective dealership.
@@Kooliat This was the price from the BMW dealer in Manilla. 80k usa 170k Philippines
@@harrywalsh791 true price in the Philippines is double or triple not worth.
@@teslam3g7 That's alot of import tax for sure
only $10,000 bring the ship to usa for car it cost from philippies.
That guy’s car is a goner. It will be owned by one of the boc personnel.
Should have sold the car and then used the money to buy one locally.
