For a Philippine court project, an arrival port is not enough to define delivery. Identify the final island, city and venue, then work backwards through transfer, unloading and installation so the court package can reach the site in a controlled sequence.
VELNUZ Courts is a Singapore-based supplier of all-glass squash courts, glass back wall systems and padel courts, working with manufacturing partners in China. This guide combines linked official information with practical questions for your project team.
01 / PHILIPPINES PROJECT GUIDE
Plan beyond the first arrival point
State whether the court is for Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao or another destination and give the exact handover address. Ask the freight provider to set out any onward sea or road movement and identify where handling changes hands.
For an island or restricted-access site, check transfer limits against the glass crates and structural components before dispatch. Agree where equipment can be stored if the installation area is not ready. Do not assume that an international freight description includes every domestic leg.
02 / PHILIPPINES PROJECT GUIDE
Confirm the importer’s arrangements early
The Philippine Bureau of Customs says entities intending to import should obtain the appropriate accreditation before transacting with Customs. Its import guidance also directs buyers to check whether their goods need permits or licences. BOC import guidelines ↗
Ask the importing business or broker to review its status and the requirements for the actual court components. Supply clear descriptions of the steel, glass, surface and electrical items. Accreditation of an importer and approval of a particular product are not interchangeable checks.
03 / PHILIPPINES PROJECT GUIDE
Ask the engineer to set the outdoor design criteria
For an outdoor padel court or roof proposal, have the responsible Philippine engineer establish the site loads, foundation and drainage requirements. Give them the address, exposure and proposed configuration. Do not interpret a standard supplier drawing as a site-specific wind or structural approval.
For indoor squash, focus the initial survey on room clearances, the floor interface and glass access. If an existing conventional court is being upgraded, define what will be retained before considering a replacement rear wall.
04 / PHILIPPINES PROJECT GUIDE
Assign each handover between freight and installation
Use a receiving checklist to identify components and record their condition. Decide who unloads, who moves the equipment into the work area and who signs off readiness for assembly. Where the venue is occupied, agree exclusion areas and working periods with the operator.
Explore padel systems, all-glass squash courts or a glass back wall package according to the project need. Keep local construction and electrical installation outside the equipment scope unless expressly included in the agreement.
BEFORE PROCUREMENT
Philippines court supply: your questions.
Does delivery to a Philippine port include onward island transport?
Only if it is specifically agreed. Name the final handover point and allocate every transfer, domestic freight and unloading stage.
Can an outdoor court be described as suitable for any Philippine site?
No blanket structural suitability claim should be used. The local engineer needs to review the actual site and proposed court or roof design.
