While many government offices struggle to hit their numbers, the Bureau of Customs-Manila International Container Port (BOC-MICP) continues to prove why it remains the country’s undisputed revenue powerhouse.
At the center of this remarkable performance is District Collector Atty. Felipe Geoffrey K. De Vera IV, whose results-driven leadership continues to translate into billions of pesos for the national government.
June 2026 was another victory for the country’s largest container port. MICP collected an impressive ₱21.456 billion, exceeding its assigned target by 4.55 percent. Even more remarkable, the Port closed the entire Second Quarter with collections reaching ₱63.454 billion, once again outperforming its revenue goal.
These are not ordinary numbers. These are proof of disciplined leadership, operational excellence, and uncompromising accountability.
Collector Felipe Geoffrey K. De Vera IV has demonstrated that strong leadership is measured not by promises or publicity but by measurable results. Under his watch, MICP continues to deliver consistent revenue gains while ensuring efficient trade facilitation and stronger border protection.
Every peso collected strengthens government programs, funds vital public services, and supports the nation’s economic growth. That is why MICP’s success deserves national recognition.
The Port’s outstanding performance also reflects the reform agenda of Customs Commissioner Ariel F. Nepomuceno, whose Integrity, Accountability, and Modernization (IAM) Program is transforming the Bureau into a more professional, transparent, and performance-driven institution.

As the first half of 2026 comes to a close, one message is unmistakable: MICP is not slowing down—it is accelerating.
With District Collector Atty. Felipe Geoffrey K. De Vera IV at the helm, the Manila International Container Port continues to set the gold standard in revenue generation, proving that disciplined leadership, integrity, and relentless execution produce extraordinary results.
When performance speaks this loudly, the numbers leave no room for doubt—MICP remains the Bureau of Customs’ revenue powerhouse, and Collector De Vera stands among the Bureau’s most effective
