Passing Score for the Customs Brokers Licensure Examination (CBLE)

An average of at least 75% in all subjects, with no rating below 60% in any subject. RA 9280 provides no conditional pass or removal exam. Source: RA 9280, Sec. 17.

What the exam covers

Four parts at 25% each over two days on PRC’s November 2026 program: Customs Laws, Rules, Regulations, Ethics and Customs Broker Practices (25%) and Customs Documentations, Clearance and Procedures (25%) on November 17; Tariff Laws, Rules, Regulations and International Trade (25%) and, in the afternoon, Tariff Classification plus Practical Computations (25% together) on November 18. RA 9280, Sec. 15 lists five subject areas and lets the Board recluster them. Source: PRC — November 2026 CBLE Program of Examination.

Requirements to Take the Customs Broker Board Exam

Under RA 9280 (Customs Brokers Act of 2004, as amended by RA 9853), an applicant for the Customs Brokers Licensure Examination (CBLE) must:

• be a Filipino citizen, or a citizen of a foreign country qualified under the Act’s reciprocity provision
• hold a bachelor’s degree in customs administration — holders of a master’s degree in customs administration could qualify only within five years after the law took effect
• be of good moral character and not convicted of any crime involving moral turpitude

Source: RA 9280, Sec. 16. PRC lists the exact documents for each round inside LERIS — typically the transcript of records with the remark “For Board Examination Purposes”, a PSA birth certificate, a PSA marriage certificate when filing under a married name, and the examination fee.

Customs Broker Board Exam Results 2026: When and Where They Come Out

PRC's target release dates are November 23, 2026 for the Nov 17–18, 2026 exam. Targets are printed in the resolution — the actual release can land a few days either side and is announced only by PRC. AyTool does not host exam results or lists of passers; passing rates for every 2026 release are compared on the PRC Board Exam Results 2026 page.

1. prc.gov.ph — the official list of passers and the top 10, posted as a news release on prc.gov.ph and on PRC's official Facebook page.
2. Verification of Rating — your own scores per subject, through LERIS at online.prc.gov.ph once PRC opens the service for that exam.
3. News sites and review centers republish the list within hours; treat anything not on prc.gov.ph as unofficial.

Retakes

RA 9280 and its amendment (RA 9853) set no retake limit, waiting period or refresher-course requirement. Source: RA 9280 (full text).

Customs Broker Board Exam 2027 Schedule: When PRC Publishes It

PRC has not yet released the 2027 schedule. It publishes the whole following-year calendar in one resolution, usually signed in late October and posted on prc.gov.ph in mid-November — the 2026 schedule (Resolution No. 2113, s. 2025) was signed on October 23, 2025 and posted on November 17, 2025 — so the customs broker board exam 2027 dates are most likely out in November 2026. Each profession usually keeps the same months from one calendar to the next, so the 2026 rounds above are the working reference until then. This page switches to the official 2027 dates the day PRC publishes them.
