Customs single window expected to raise exporter competitiveness
Business World Philippines
|January 20, 2026
THE Bureau of Customs’ National Single Window-Integrated Trade Facilitation Platform (NSW-ITFP) will allow exporters to better compete within the region by lowering costs and improving the reliability of supply chains, the Federation of Philippine Industries (FPI) said.

“Importers and exporters used to shuttle between offices… (where) each agency had its own forms, its own queues, and its own delays. The NSW-ITFP promises to end that fragmentation,” the FPI said in a statement on Monday.
Citing the Philippines NSW website, the FPI said that 40 agencies are involved in the issuance of import and export permits, licenses, and clearances.
“If connected to a single digital portal, where one submission flows seamlessly across regulators, this will lower transaction costs for businesses, while faster clearance can improve supply chain reliability,” it said.
