The attendee will gain an insight as to why their business should consider obtaining AEO status. 


With Brexit now a reality, businesses trading with Europe are now becoming familiar with the need to
Customs clear their goods when they are buying and/or selling into or out of the EU.


Whilst this in itself almost certainly means additional administration and cost, another concern is
whether their goods might be delayed on leaving or entering the EU as well as other countries
across the world.


Achieving Authorised Economic Status (AEO) is one way to mitigate this risk as it is a benefit to
holders of this Accreditation that their goods are given priority treatment when they pass through
Customs borders.


It may also mean reduced Customs administration and associated costs when buying/selling not just
to/ from the EU but across the globe.


This one-day course is designed to help businesses understand why there might be a benefit in
achieving AEO Status and what is required within a business to achieve this Accreditation.

The day will consist of various discussions, guidance, and explanations on the following subjects:

  • Background to AEO
  • Potential benefits of holding AEO accreditation
  • International Supply Chain - what does it look like ?
  • Types of AEO status
  • Security & Safety
  • Customs Simplification
  • The Application process and Criteria required to be met to obtain authorisation
  • Authorisation
  • Managing AEO Authorisation once granted

Who is this course for?

This course is suitable for anyone wanting to learn what AEO is for, how it can be put to use within a company, the benefits of becoming AEO registered and the paperwork process.


For those wanting enough knowledge to make a decision before committing to the process, this is
the course to choose.

Any business involved in the international supply chain that carries out customs related activities in
the EU can apply for AEO status, regardless of their size.
