Hi, I would like to request information on bringing back my car from the USA to the Philippines on my retirement from work. What are the procedures and how do I go about it. Who should I contact-do they have emails to communicate? because I'm right now residing abroad (USA) and would like to know all these facts so that I can prepare ahead of time. [Text Redacted]. Thank you. P.S.- I tried searching for the Bureau of Customs on this site but cannot find it, maybe you can do me a favor by forwarding my request tothe right person
