BOC Launches Balikbayan Box Tracker

In line with the upcoming holiday festivities, the Bureau of Customs has recently put up a helpful online-based tracker that will help Filipinos to check the status of the balikbayan boxes that were shipped by their loved ones abroad.

The Balikbayan Box Tracker, which can be found on the link below this post, contains all of the things you need to know about your package. It provides information such as the courier name, country of origin of the package, Bill of Landing and the current status of the balikbayan box.

All that is needed to track a package is the cargo forwarder’s name and the Bill of Landing (BL) number of the shipment that the package is in.

Users may either go to the Balikbayan Box Tracker’s minisite and key in the required information there, or download the excel file and search the package offline. Of course, it’s always best to refer to the online tool as it will be up to date.
