Check your setup before money moves
Interactive walk-throughs built on what GCash, the banks, Google, Microsoft, BSP and the PH agencies publish — each step names its source and the date it was checked. They run entirely in your browser. This is sourced information, never financial, security, or legal advice, and no tool can make any account secure.

Balikbayan box volume checker
Enter length × width × height in inches or cm and see the gross cubic centimetres against the 200,000 cm³ the balikbayan-box definition sets in CAO 01-2018 §3.2 — with the exact headroom or overage. Size, value and weight are three different limits; this checks size.

Balikbayan box tax-free allowance tracker
Add the boxes you have sent this year and see the pesos left under the ₱150,000 value cap (CAO §4.2) and the availments left under the 3-per-year frequency cap (§4.1) — with the ₱10,000 de minimis (CMTA §423) kept separate. States the rule for excess value; never computes a duty.
