SUBIC BAY FREEPORT — The Bureau of Customs (BOC)-Port of Subic has installed Atty. Noah Dimaporo as its new district collector, marking a leadership transition as the agency continues efforts to improve trade facilitation, strengthen border protection and sustain government revenue collection.
Dimaporo formally assumed the post on Nov. 9, 2026, succeeding Atty. Geniefelle P. Lagmay during a turnover ceremony at the Port of Subic.
Lagmay’s departure ends his tenure overseeing customs operations at the port, where the agency pursued improvements in operational efficiency, border security, trade facilitation and revenue collection.
Dimaporo is expected to sustain these initiatives and strengthen the port’s role in facilitating legitimate import and export transactions while ensuring compliance with customs regulations and protecting the country against illicit trade.
The leadership change comes as the BOC pursues reforms to make customs operations more efficient, transparent and accountable, particularly in supporting the movement of goods through the country’s ports.
The bureau will continue implementing Customs Commissioner Ariel F. Nepomuceno’s Integrity, Accountability and Modernization (IAM) Movement, which aims to promote professionalism, institutional reforms and personal accountability among customs personnel.
