Abstract: This study primarily aims to evaluate the preventive measures adapted by Bureau of Customs Port of Batangas. The objectives of this study were to assess the level of effectiveness of the preventive measures adapted; identify the problems encountered in the implementation of the preventive measure; to test the significant relationship between the level of effectiveness and problems encountered as perceived by the two groups of respondents; and to propose plan of action that may be designed to address the level of effectiveness of the preventive measures adapted. The present study was a descriptive research that used quantitative analysis. The respondents of the study were the heads and employees from the four division of Bureau of Customs, Port of Batangas such as Assessment Division, Port Operation Division, Customs Police Division-Enforcement and Security Service (CPD-ESS) and Customs Intelligence and Investigation Service (CIIS). The results revealed that the preventive measures adapted by Bureau of Customs were assessed by the respondents as very effective. However, two of the preventive measures were assessed by the two groups of respondents such as heads and employees as effective only. The researchers recommended that Bureau of Customs, Port of Batangas continuously strengthen their implementation of their preventive measures for further prevention and suppression of smuggling.
