AEO (Authorised Economic Operator) status is a certification granted by HMRC. As an AEO-accredited business, we are proven to consistently meet customs regulations and effectively manage commercial records when dealing with imports and exports.

This status is widely recognized as a mark of security and trustworthiness within the international supply chain.

The benefits of being an AEO are numerous, especially in the post-Brexit era where trade with the EU is now considered international and subject to increased scrutiny.

Some of the key advantages include access to Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRAs) with several major trading partners, including the EU, Japan, China, the USA, Switzerland, and New Zealand, with more agreements in the pipeline. This recognition streamlines trade processes and reduces the need for redundant checks. 

AEO status also allows for faster customs authorisations and fewer physical and document-based controls, leading to smoother and more efficient customs clearance. Additionally, with a lower risk score, AEO status helps mitigate the risk of theft and loss, ensuring the safe and secure movement of goods in and out of your business.
