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.
